Wow, I can't believe another year is almost over. For me it has been very challenging. Most of this year has been spent trying to find out what is medically wrong with m hubby. In Feb. we thought he had a stroke because he just was not functioning right. Unfortunately the preliminary diagnosis is worse. The dr's are saying he has Frontaltemporal Dementia. This is rare and hits people at a younger age than alzheimers. he has lost some of his cognitive processing skills and reaction times. There is no cure, or treatment that can reverse any issues. He will get progressively worse and need 24 7 care eventually. We are heading to Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. right after Christmas for further testing and confirmation. I am fortunate that our three children live within 15 min of us and are a tremendous support wanting to spend as much time as they can wih their dad. Our grandsons are 5 and 6 and our granddaughter is 11/2. They are such a delight. I pray that this Christmas will bring peace and joy to you and your families. Please keep my family in your prayers as we face this challenging illness. I thank God my 2 best friends are keeping me sane and helping me walk this journey.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Love Cindy B
It sounds like you are ready to face this challenge head-on and I pray for strength for the long run, peace for God's will and joy for the moments he still knows and enjoys life.
Your family sounds loving and your friends supportive.
May God bless you all this holiday, when we celebrate Christ's birth. Toogie
