"Grandpa" is out walking Asta
My father Died the 11th of July 2007... I am still in quite a fog.. but I wanted to post a little something... He would sign Birthday cards to my dog ..."Grandpa"
last weekend my mother who is in the 1st stages of Alzheimer's asked me for the third time since my father's death..."Where is your father?" (somewhere in there she knows, she did see him..but just sometimes she forgets..and then later remembers..it is quite sad..sometimes she will still ask me why I don't bring Asta to visit her )
I was completely emotionally and physically spent with everything that had to be done at the time so rather then go through it with her all again I just replied.. "He is out walking Asta" ..she will forget that too..and already has.
