Now what I am going to say is for our valley and for us. Do your own homework for your area and spouse. I have done my homework...visited several places and in this valley...no one wants to deal with Lewy Body Dementia. It's like a plague. When you ask they say "nope"...we can't handle that here. It's not their fault...this disease takes special people and 24/7 care....I get it. I have ones from the valley who specialize in this disease call me and talk ...ones from Boise call and talk with me. And, it comes down to "stay in place"....so for now we are being told the best for hubby is to "stay in place" and have ones come to us. It's cheaper and he is safe here. But ones can come into the home to help. This I will be checking more into to see where that goes. Thank you to the ones who have recommended homes outside of the valley but kids and grandkids want grandpa close. So that is what we will do. Actually, we are fine...I get o...

Thank you all for your prayers this last week.....you can really tell the difference when people are praying. Life has been good this week....hubby has been real, real tired but has been in the moment....his body is drained, but his spirits are great.....this week the confusion has not been as bad....we have had fun just doing goofy things but being able to do them. So I will count my blessings when I get them......hubby is still not on any meds other than his blood pressure.... We hope to stay this way as long as possible,  but with Lewy Body Dementia ...issues will come and go as the journey goes on....so taking this last week as a blessing....... Again we thank each one of you...don't ever think your prayers don't matter ...they tremulously do.....and the one you are praying for can definitely feel the difference. God bless and enjoy your day.......We couldn't do this journey without all your help...
