    Palmetto Peg,

    I am saddened by your post of your husband’s passing. Symptom and AD progression wise, my husband is near where yours was last summer. We identify and learn how to manage and cope from each other on this site. Thank you for letting us know and sharing valuable contributions that have helped me and so many other carers know they are not alone.

    I wish you peace as you move forwarded in life post dementia. You’ve been a wonderful supporter and carer of your husband throughout this challenge. May he rest in peace free of disease and you, too, rest and heal. Hold onto to the happy, healthy and good memories of your marriage. May they lift you up and carry you through your grief.

    Now here.
