Another award...

Just won another award for this blog. Except that they think I'm a guy for some reason.
Had a Dad: The impetus of this blog was simple: to provide a space for a son whose father was struggling with Alzheimer's. His father has recently passed on, yet he continues to vent here.

update 06-21-2011: they have corrected the description to "daughter" with the appropriate pronouns. Still unsure why they decided I'm a guy!

"The cost of Alzheimer's? Everything you ever owned, everything you ever thought you would get, and things you never even thought about."

"It's a long, slow slide into oblivion, with no brakes."

"If this was a paper journal, the ink would be running with tears."

"Imagine a really beautiful, perfect statue, left out in the wind and rain for centuries, to be worn away, until it’s only retained the shape of a person, not any of the individuality. That’s what Alzheimer’s did to my father. It wore him away, all the sharp edges and crisp points that made him Bob, who loved his family and his pets and his raspberry bushes, and turned him into a fearful person with a vague and confused stare."

"It's a nasty disease, surrounded by shadows and small, largely unseen tragedies."--Terry Pratchett
