Merry Christmas
If I don't get a chance to sit down and write a few words before Monday, I hope everyone has a great Christmas. Thanks for all your love and support over the years.
Kris, Thank you for all the effort you put into writing your Blog. I check it everyday to see how you are doing. I am a full time caregiver for my wife, Dorothee, who also has Early-On-Set. Her symptoms started at age 49 and it took 6 years to get a diagnosis, she is now 61. She has progressed farther then you are right now. I serve on the Public Policy Committee for the Western & Central Washington Alzheimer's Association here in Seattle and also on the Tacoma Memory Walk committee. I also keep a website to update our friends and family around the world on how she is doing. Feel free to look at if you would like. The link is www.opaandoma.us . Have a very Merry Christmas and enjoy your time with you son. I fully understand how precious time is. Dick Lundgren
