I too have been in that very same spot Diane. My mom died on July 4, 2005 for elderly onset dementia. Until the day she died she knew who everyone was and what everything was for but couldn't remember what happened from one minute to the next, so repetition was common. This is a poignant, beautifully written accounting. Thank you for sharingand "for a lifetime of red geraniums and trailing ivy". . .
