Hello old friend!  I just stopped in for a quick visit and found this post of yours about moving.  You offered some great tips.  I'm glad to see that you are still writing and sharing your story.  As before, you're doing very well.  Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing an inside look into the illness of dementia.  Best Wishes, -- Joseph --

Blessings,
