Our Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson disease journey....book....

-

 

My hubby of 51 years was a big strong truck driving man. He drove over 35 years doubles, triples, haz mat semi trucks across the united States. He would be gone sometimes for a month at a time but would call every night to talk with me and the kids. He loved driving across the country....now he has lewy body dementia and parkinson disease. Yesterday I hear the truck start up and go running hubby thought someone told him to back the truck up and he was almost into the neighbors fence. He hates not getting to drive.
Well, daughter has been working on a small book which will come out in sequels...mostly just the chapters that hubby and I are living. No medical helps...no professional helps....just us walking through this journey together.
The book will come out in sequels and will be available on Amazon...won't cost much just enough to cover costs. We are praying these small books will help someone else that is going on this journey....what little that will be made which will be a couple dollars per book will go toward hubbies medical bills....
Will let you all know as soon as its published and ready to be purchased. God bless...

Removing and replacing our old pathway

 We moved into our home about 15 years ago at that time we decided to place a walkway down through the yard to a firepit.  Our family loves to sit around the backyard fire and roast hotdogs and marshmallows.  We haven't done much to the walkway except spray it once in a while with weed kill but today we decided it was time to remove and repair.  So we began to dig out the bricks..it was amazing how some were buried and some were broken.  They all were beginning to sink down deeper and deeper. There was a lot of moss that had even grown over the top of them.  But hubby and I worked together and got them all dug up.  The pathway went from the deck to the firepit ring.  All of these bricks have been recycled we would watch for free ones.  Sometimes just driving down the road there would be bricks with a sign take all you want.  So some of these bricks have different says on them.  We also enjoy using our dutch ovens....

Our Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson Disease journey

  I don't know if any of you facing these diseases have these problems, but I need to talk with the neurologist for some answers...mercy. Hubby has this crazy idea that he needs to search the house for things. I purchase a new vacuum because the belt broke on the old one. I got the same one but decided to keep one for downstairs and one for upstairs. So I put the old one way back in the furnace room until I can fix it and the new one up front easy to get to. Hubby is determined to climb back there and always get the old one. He moves the new one to get to the old one. I hide some shampoo that I wanted to give to daughter as it doesn't work good for hubby and I. He finds it somehow and starts using it. I hide some spray paint its the kind that will change a object into a mirror...he found it and sprayed it on lumber in the yard. Mercy...drives me crazy. Just saying....I told him we are going to Nampa on Thursday...to see the doctor. He got really mad that night at me b...
