Meet N Greet

ScottyRachel

Hello,
We are Scotty and Rachel.
Married for 41 years.
Rachel has been diagnosed with Mild Dimentia. We are new to this community and look forward to interacting , supporting and sharing. Our journey started about 3 years ago. With trial and error we have been coping on our own. Now that we have a community, we know we are going to have company on this journey. We are people of faith. God the Father , Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit guide us daily. We pray for all in our new commune of Memory Mates. Blessings to all and have a great weekend.

Welcome to the forum no one wants to be in! This forum saved me. I've been here almost 4 years and have learned so much. Dare I say, kindred spirits in the same lot. We may be on different boats but are weathering the same storm.

Hi Scotty and Rachel, I wish we were meeting under different circumstances. Yes, this forum is supportive and can help you both along this journey. We're all here for each other.

Hi Scotty and Rachel, my husband was diagnosed about 5 years ago. He’s stage 6 now, I have caregivers coming to the house part time. He is happy most of the time and we still enjoy life. I too lean on the Lord and He has given me peace in this journey. I will be praying for the two of you!

welcome to the place for info and support. I don’t know what I would have done without this group. I felt so alone. 💜🙏

Welcome! I am relatively new here but have gleaned a ton of information AND support. I am here as the only child of my octogenarian mother who is my pwd. I am a registered nurse and NOTHING I learned or applied to patients seem to work when the patient is your own parent/spouse.

Welcome, Scott and Rachel.

You have found a wonderful place to be. There is so much knowledge and wonderful care giving ideas shared here.

I came on this website 7 years ago, after I had to place my DH in MC. It was hard for me, but I got a lot of encouraging advice. My DH passed away 6 years ago, I still love this, website. The, people here are so caring.

We look forward to sharing with you. Hugs Zetta

Hi, Scotty and Rachel. I am fairly new here too, but five years into caring for my father WD. This is a caring place where people speak their own truths with compassion for others.
