Ash, this is yet more proof that we are the SAME PERSON, because my grandmother had Alzheimer's and Dementia too. And I totally understand the whole "expecting her death" thing, because my grandmother used to be one of the brightest, funniest, most intelligent women I knew and she lost all of that by the time the disease had taken over. It was so sad. I was really sad when she died, but I was more glad that it was all over. You know? She didn't even know my dad at the end - that's hard to see.

I'll be praying for you. I know how fast things like Alzhiemer's and cancer can work, and how miracles can happen. I love you sis. You know how to find me if you need a friend :)

I agree, news such as that needs to come from a phone call, at least.

Praying for you and yours.

I can relate and I know how tough it is. My Scottish grandfather who has been a huge part of my life was diagnozed with dementia when I was at Harding and its very unlikely that he will recognize me on my next visit home, I can't bring myself to think about what will actually happen when he passes with me being over here...My American grandmother, who has never really been close to my siblings and I due to various reasons, has been sick for a long time and its only a matter of weeks (days? I dont know) until she passes away and my side of the family are likely to be told over an email or a voicemail. Over the years I've just had to accept that that is how its going to be, as much as I hate that, but it makes me feel horrible. I really am praying for you Ashely.
