    those alzhemiers facilities are expensive–she seems really tough (both of them)-for hanging in there 10 years (I am only 43–but my MRI doesn’t look good–and I am probably progressing), I heard the younger you get alzhemiers the harder and faster it is (I have vertigo right now–severe at times)..

    I hope that one day there will be a cure for this illness. But on a lighter note, for their ages, this is a great-looking couple.

    Well, she seems to have an earlier stage of AD. My grandmother, for example, can’t even think straight anymore. She is incapable of starting and finishing a whole sentence. It’s really tragic. What really moved me in this story is that he refuses to put her in some care facility. That’s really humane.
