Hello.

Hi..I’m Sharon and my husband and I are going on our journey with Alzheimer’s. It’s not what we’d thought our retirement years would be..but hey ho.

Hello and welcome from me too, I think your positive attitude will help, hey ho, I like it, very much my attitude too.
10 years on here wife then mum then the both of them together didn't grind me down the way it does some people.
Caring is hard don't get me wrong mum passed away a while back, got a letter from the undertaker the other day reminding me to come and collect my wife's ashes.
As I've said before I'd do it all again, tomorrow, in a heartbeat if I could. K
