My 18 year old granddaughter is struggling as she is losing her Best Friend , her grandfather, to Alzheimer’s.  If I could direct her to a forum that includes this type of relationship it may help her to cope with his final stages.

    Welcome to the forum Mimi.  There are grandchildren on this forum, if your granddaughter posts she will likely connect with some of them.  Hope you and she will find it helpful.
