"SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP

Hello there, Kenzie
This is a Simply Positive Review! *UmbrellaW*


*CoffeeV* I am also reviewing your item because it popped-up on the Random Review generator.

*BareTree* Dementia, the loss of a loved one while they are still living. The pain of trying to get them to recognize you -- the blank expressions, then a sudden change as if a light has entered, yet only briefly.


*Cry* I saw my aunt go through that, many years ago. Even before she was too ill to keep at home, the days before the diagnoses of Alzheimers' came to light, at family get togethers relatives would notice that something was not right -- there was a fog she slipped under.

*DropP* Your story touched my heart, deeply. I will never have to go through that with my parents, as both have passed on, one very early in my life and my mother a few years ago. Neither one had this terrible disease, and I am so filled with joy that on the day she dies so unexpectedly, we talked on the phone and said I love you at the end of each conversation.


*AsteriskP* Your story is a perfect portrayal of what is life in the early days, before the disease struck a loved one, until the days he would no longer recognize his children. Yet, the ending, about the clodhoppers made me smile.

Precious are the memories you have. May God bless. *ButterflyV*


Until next time--write on!

Regards,
WebWitch *Witch*
