Jeany, Allen sure is quick. You have often posted his one liners on here. Everyone of them is priceless

Great to read all these thoughts from much respected members who have been through the whole journey. I think those of us who are still able to recognise the 'preservation of personality' regardless of the severity of the dementia are lucky.
