SusanEllen66 I Was just diagnosed with MCI this past year. Family members say the same "you're okay". My answer is you don't live with me. My husband knows differently. The future scares me when I think of what may happen but Christ is indeed in control. We are blessed. This Mayo Clinic Connect has helped me but has also opened my eyes as to what might be ahead for my husband in caring for me.

@mablesmith Jesus Christ is by our side every step of the way!

I understand about the “you’re ok”. People sometimes say, you don’t look like you have dementia. I answer, what does a person with dementia look like?

Family members may not know what to say. We need to forgive them.
I live alone and my family doesn’t seem to notice…

This is a journey for sure!

I can totally relate.
