I've seen dementia take a person away, the person we knew, and it was a tragic situation, a decline that wore all of us down little by little. My man didn't talk too much about it, he is stoic, but I could see, and still see, the toll it took on him and even now I know the same happening to him is one of his biggest fears.
I hope none of us lose our memories and live long and healthy lives. The sad thing is that is not always possible.
A really nice and thoughtful post.

It's a fear for many that have witnessed something like that. Another disease on the list of cruelty coming as our bodies decay in age. And another reminder that we should appreciate the good moments that we have. I wish you both that you won't have to experiment this, so you can celebrate your love until the end.
And thank you for the compliment!
