My mother-in-law Lorraine had Alzheimer’s, and it was a heartbreaking sight.
Her family also suffered and watched the abduction in fright.
My husband would cook breakfast for his Mom each day,
Trying to be a ray of sunshine come what may.
One morning she said to her son, “Who are you, what’s your name?”
“You know me Mother, I’m your son…” he quickly exclaimed.
Alzheimer’s is a horrible disease that tears families apart.
It robbed my husband of his Mother, and slowly broke his heart.
