My dad caught Alzheimers when he was 82. He lasted till he was 92 and it finally killed him. It's a horrible sickness because it slowly destroys the person you loved and leaves only the shell. People wondered why I didn't cry at my fathers funeral. My only reply was that my father (his personality) died 10 years earlier. If I could offer just one bit of advice to todays youth it would be to treasure all the time you have left with your parents. It goes by so quickly, and when they go there is this hole inside of you that will never be full again. Savor the moments.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly. (Leave the rest to God)  Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
