getting close….

to Troy’s death anniversary. After the date of our wedding anniversary things become sad cause I know his death anniversary is right around the corner. The grief changes, it’s never the same. I heard from one of my widower friends the other day, it was so sad what he had to say. He always has the most beautiful pictures with the perfect words. I have been seeing less and less of him, he let us know why. He is dealing with the onset of alzheimers. I felt so very sad for him. He said there are days he stands in a room and doesn’t know where he is or who he is. How very sad for him. I’m thankful for my memories of Troy even though they are painful but my friend is losing his ability to claim the memories he once had. I thought of my aunt who I watched slowly slip away from us. She was like a mother to me. I wish you well Michael, and pray you can hang on to your memories for a long time……thank you for blessing us all with your beautiful pictures and words.
