And now may the Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.

And may God grant unto you His peace-in your going out and in your coming in,

In your lying down and in your rising up,

In your labor and in your leisure,

In your laughter and in your tears,

Until you come to stand before Jesus

In that day in which there is no sunset and no dawning.

Amen

More short term forgetfulness

We are back to a two car family. I have the choice of the Buick or the Mercury. The Mercury has a heater for the winter that plugs in to keep the oil and engine warm. Yesterday DH reminded me four times that if I took the Mercury to work today I would have to unplug it before I drove it. This morning he reminded me a fifth time.

I think he is aware of what is happening. Last night a medium sized fight of words broke out. He has been so stable with his temper for the last two months. I don't know if this is a sign of frustration.

Until I have sufficient information I am not going to confide in the doctor about what I am thinking. More observation is needed between then and now.

Please keep praying for all dementia patients, their caregivers and extended family and friends.
