@keithcarey84 I try to get my hubby out too. I would go stir crazy staying housebound in these winter months. We enjoy going to the movies and having popcorn and a coke. I am not sure how much he can keep up with, but he enjoys the outing. “Solo Mia” was good, and “I Can Only Imagine 2” is next on the list. I don’t know how much longer we will be able to do these things together so I am trying to make the most of this time. We are celebrating our 45th wedding anniversary today along with Valentine’s Day. It been kind of one sided…but I want him to always know how much he means to me.

@labrown Thanks Colleen
Happy Anniversary 45th....treasure each moment. journal day to day. i have a "blog" on my reminders that keeps growing with significant events that happen with Linda. Do that please along with journaling and photographs ... when i look at the in-shape picture of Linda holding a volleyball at a private court vs the frailty she is now... the progression is/can be heartbreaking if you do not know Jesus in a personal way. Just when i accept the way things are and TRY TO KEEP ALL THE PLATES SPINNING AT HOME.... a new behavior slips in! The car appeared in a different spot in the garage this morning - more forward than the way i spot it. Linda has no knowledge of driving!
Last week or a few days before that, is a diagnosis of Frontal Lobe Decline....no Temporal yet...a Pet Scan is next. never knew about this 3-D imaging.
please keep in touch .... find a Senior CareGiver Counselor that may be in a Network like Humana. Mine can do by Video if you are interested.
