[Ruthie]

My mother died in November, 1999 from complications due to Alzheimer’s. I moved her in with me 4 years before her death as she was ‘forgetful’. In 1998, I had to put her in a Rehab Center that specialized in Alzheimer’s patients because she became a danger to herself and others. It was a horrible day for me. Even though she could not call me by name at the end, there was recognition that I was someone comforting to her. She ultimately died of a stroke caused by the disease and I was happy for her to finally leave this plane of existence. I am now going to college to learn to be of more help to families affected by this tragic disease. Feel free to contact me if you feel the need.
