My Alzheimers diagnosis was made in December 2017.
It hit me very hard.
Everyday I wake up with the knowledge that I have AZ and with the dread of how much time I have left before I forget who I am.
Thus I titled my YEAR ONE BOOK: I am waiting for when I forget I have Alzheimers.
I was waiting for when I didn't worry about it anymore.
Now 1 year and 11 months later I realize the title can be changed to:
I am waiting for when I don't care I have Alzheimers.
I no longer care about or worry about my diagnosis.
I have had such a great time over the last 23 months
and I plan to have at least another two years of joy.
I have 6 weeks to finish my next book:
Traveling with Alzheimers: Year Two.
I am writing the October 2019 chapter presently so the book is basically already written.
Year Three will be:
The Pursuit of Happiness by an Alzheimers patient with a license to have fun.
