Please, please wear your PFD. Yesterday we (the city) lost a young father, poor swimmer, no PFD, fell over board – you can guess the rest of the story.

His wife tried to save him as their 2 children, ages 1 and 4, watched in horror.

Please wear your PFD!!! this summer.

Hugged my sister-in-law and Wayne’s brother goodbye. He told me they are at peace to leave, knowing Wayne is in good hands and cared for so well. Aw, thanks! They are great supporters. Sadly, they live 11 or 12 hours away by car.

The good news is, BIL is returning for a week in the fall to spend time again.

That’s very good – with Alzheimer’s one doesn’t know what a month or week or the next day may bring. It delivered a couple surprises during this visit.

(I’m sure I’ve said it before, but I hate you Alzheimer’s, and some day you will fall.)

Oh, my brother phoned me with name of a new drug used after Aricept so I faxed our lovely and caring specialist. Should get a call this week to see where we are in our journey and if this drug may be one to go to.

Other than that, life is good.
