The beautiful AP’s father died last night. He had suffered with Alzheimers. By the end, he didn’t even know his name. His passing was a blessing.

Frank and AP, so sorry you lost AP’s dad. With this terrible disease in many ways he has been gone for some time. Rose and I will keep you in our thoughts.

I watched that dreaded disease steal my wonderful loving grandmother. She got it young. She was basically unaware if anything for ten years.
Death is a blessing in these cases
I think she could have been given a shot yeats earlier to gently let her slip away.
That would have been humane. We would not let a dig suffer yhe way we let humans suffer.
AP lost her dad years ago. This was just the body that held him.

Sorry for your loss, my condolences. I lost my grandmother which was my last grandparent to Alzheimer’s in 2002. It was weir because she was saying off the wall shit to everybody, not remembering people but whenever I would come to the hospital she would be normal and she always remembered me. She had 8 kids and 7 grandkids, it was weird that I was the only one she acted normal around being I was probably around the last.
