My Daddy had Alzheimers
Her children thought something about their father was off
They did not know what it was
Having never thought of dementia or Alzheimer’s before
They attempted to tell Mom their concerns
She refused to see anything weird in her husband
He’s a bit slower, that is all.
She had jammed herself in the middle of a bread pan of denial
Finally, she had to admit there might be something.
After he sat on a riding lawn mower for three hours
But did not start it
Because he had forgotten how
PS The key was in the lawnmower
