Read a good article on living with dementia and caring for a parent as they fall victim to the disease. It triggered a lot of flashbacks as I went through this with both my dad and my mom. I can now recall that my life from 2002 to 2011 I was the caregiver. In my dad's case he suffered from a rare form of Kreutzfeld Jacob disease. I watched him go very fast. My mother slowly went away over a period of 9 years. No. If i ever find myself going down that path I may find a way to end it quickly.
