I lost my grandmother to a complication of Alzheimer’s, dementia, stroke, and who knows what else. It sucks. I didn’t really get much of a chance to get to know her throughout the years and now it’s way too late for me. A lot of these feelings were brought up lately after helping an elderly customer look for books about fighting Alzheimer’s for the third time. She kept talking about how she needs to take care of her daughter too. I really have no idea what to do in that type of situation. She’s already bought a bunch of books on the subject yet I doubt any of those books have a chapter dedicated to testing if you yourself are suffering from dementia.

Tell your loved ones that you love them. It never hurts to keep doing that either.
