I understand tattoos with meaning, but what I don't get is tatting yourself up for the sake of ink. Not a fan of that at all.

He's mellowed A LOT and just doesn't have the old drive and push. I miss that sometimes too. But Elizabeth is right in that these times today, though different, while be treasured and remembered in different ways. How blessed you both are to have each other and to have shared soo much together. I LOVE that he tells you everyday that he loves you..and is grateful for all you do.

What a blessing that he is still able to tell you every day how much he loves you and thanks you for all you do for him. Such a treasure!

My dad had Alzheimer's Disease and mom had dementia. It does, indeed, change their personalities and abilities. Yet, the quieter - more reflective and observant - person they became allowed me time to slow down and appreciate life at a different pace. Anticipatory grief...that sense of sadness and missing one's old life...was always a predominant feeling. I tried to enjoy the bright spots of my time with them and recognize that I was on another type of journey with them. I hope this week has many bright spots and good memories for you and your dear husband.

I can see that you are providing a very safe and peaceful place for him at this time of his life and what a blessing that must be for both of you. Oh the treasured memories you have to look back on and be thankful for, but you are also having experiences now that one day you will also treasure.
