Welcome

I started this blog for you ... my family and close friends.

As you may know, I havent exactly been very good at the phone in recent months. In an effort to keep everyone to speed and in the loop on the progression of our journey - this blog was born. A writer by trait, this only seemed natural.

It is my goal one day to make our journey known. As I began searching the internet for anything on this encounter, in what seems like years now, I found solice in other's words. In others blogs. There is not alot out there on dementia, on either side of the battle. I hope one day we are able to change that. This is the first step.

I am a very private person, but know that one day our inspiration may facilitate anothers hope to keep moving on, as we have done. Although on the vast chaotic world of the internet, this blog is not open to the public - but seen only by those I invite... it is safe from wandering eyes.

I want to take a moment to thank you all for the outpouring of support I have received in the last year. It's been a tough year, but we've made it. And I have you to thank. Each of you has given me a gift so dear and I am very grateful to have you in my life.

But you dont just meant the world to me, but to my mom. That is why you are here, our nearest and dearest. The memories we have shared are priceless. If I were to mention each of you, she would be able to share a few good memories. That is what life is all about.

I cant promise constant updates (as I am so very new to this whole thing) but keep checking back ... you never know what you might find. Of course, I'll be picking up the phone also - just thought this would do in those in between times!
