I am just getting back on track, and getting around to looking at your blog. I know that it has been a month, and I am sorry. My grandfather passed away on 2-4 after having Dementia. I have been able to relate with you in many ways, even though I was not his caregiver. I just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you.... Not Issued Greta, I am sorry about the loss of you dad.

Now that you can stand down from active Alzheimer's duty with your beloved Dad, you can take care of you. Your dedication to him was inspiring, and just like a pitcher cannot pour out to quench another's thirst without first being filled, so it is your time to replenish, refill, and rejuvenate. I pray for all these and more for you and your family.
