    The uncertainty is so hard... We really thought my partner was on a steep downhill slide and actively dying at the end of june, but now she's stabilized. So it just goes on....

    I'm so very sorry @CStrope . The Alzheimer's/FTD journey is a tough one indeed. I know you have a lot to do right now, but please be sure to take care of yourself.
