Hi - I've been reading the forums for some time but only posted once. I know the support offered here would be helpful and thought I would introduce myself. My husband was diagnosed in the fall of 2014 and is dealing with some cognitive decline as well as the physical losses this disease brings. I can't believe the changes this past year has brought. He is no longer walking but has good upper body strength. He once was talkative, vibrant and gifted in his field of computer technology and now he can't find the words to express what he is thinking. Nighttime is the loneliest and when my fears tend to overtake me. It feels good just to type this and know someone who understands will be reading it. I admire the wisdom and strength of many who post here. Thanks for the encouraging words. They have helped many nights when I wonder about tomorrow and wish I had made today better for him.
