As time slips by, it becomes easier to remember the time before dementia came into our lives.
After all, there were so many years in those before-times and so many wonderful memories from all those years.
During Burt’s illness, there were good times and difficult times.
In other words, the last few years left me a mixed bag of remembrances. I remember those times with equivocal gratitude. The intimacy of caring for Burt overshined the challenges but the challenges loomed large.
Remembering the places we’d been over the years, and the things we did together over all those years is unequivocally a delight.
