Dementia demonstrated In real "time"🥲 Dad has been suffering from vascular dimension for a few years and the last six months the decline has been swift and steep . Today I helped facilitate an evaluation , sat in front of him holding the phone so he could FaceTime with a nurse. It became clear to me that he is now in the Dad time zone that only he knows -the nurse asked him to draw a clock and he struggled .
Bittersweet to watch the former MBA professor, the Colonel in the Air Force, the engineer brain aviation nut , author of several books and an ultra disciplined and generally brilliant man struggle to draw this crazy damn sweet clock.
The good news is in Dad's new time zone. There's now always plenty of time for naps , ice cream, brownies, listening to the sounds of the F15 squad flying overhead and silly little things that now bring BIG Joy.❤️❤️❤️
