We were very lucky with my mom. She had Alzheimer's disease for around 15-16 years but was never violent. It is the saddest disease anyone can have. My dad passed away with cancer but in my opinion it was easier to cope with than the Alzheimer's disease mom had. The blank, lost, confused, and scared person I would see when I looked in her precious eyes. Sometimes it was almost more than I could care. Near the end she was scared to death because she recognized nor knew anyone (about the last 2 or 2-and-a-half years.) I love and miss that sweet mama I had, but I would never ask God to send her back. She has a new body now. Praise the Lord! I love you mama and we will meet again one day real soon and we can both sit at Jesus' feet and worship him tougher! Thank you God for this wonderful promise!
