Thank you so much for your story!
Please share with anyone who may benefit now :) I also work with families who have experienced the death of a loved one and haven't created a memory book yet.
Alzheimer's is a hard road to walk, for the person and the family. My family is on that journey right now with my grandparents. Hugs and light to your family.
I would like to hear your ideas about memory books. That is definitely on my to do list and i havent thought aboit beginning yet. I wrote a poem/outpouring of my memories which was shared at her funeral and I think brought some comfort to our family. I actually recently shared it here

I'm sorry to hear you are also in the middle of the Alzheimers storm. It can be a very challenging place to be.
