This has been an interesting week so far. Stopped at a donut shop and while I was ordering I ask Maribeth to sit at a table. She did, for a min. I turned around to check on her and she was gone. She had followed another man out of the store and was trying to get in his car. Yes I went and got her. Then on Monday she put all her shoes in the washing machine, I was working on RV, by the time I walked into garage I heard, thump bang boom. The shoes were in the drier. was kind of funny but not good for the shoes.
Now Maribeth insist on getting the mail. If there is mail it is all for her. I found important mail in the trash. So now I have to watch that.
This Alzheimer's is getting worse much faster than I thought it would.
Well it is a new day lets see what trouble Maribeth can get in to.

Update on my wife
Since the last post my wife has gotten much worse, not flushing toilets, throwing valuables away and not being able to understand speach.
She has trown away diamond ear rings, gold and semi precious stones. This week I found a Torques and silver necklace , which by the way I think I recovered all items or atleast I hope I did.
Also found clothing, shows and our sewing box in trash..
Glad I am bigger than her, she would probable put me in trash can.
Any letter of form with a long name on it she assumes it is hers, because her name is long. Maribeth can no longer read or write. Everyone she see's in public she thinks she knows, and will "talk" actually just babble to them.
I do not look foward to the day she forgets to use toilet, I can't do that. I have no idea what I will do.
As far as my sanity goes, what I have left is being protected by a very special online friend we will call Button. She is a very good and special understanding person. I can vent my frustrations to her and she offers her point of view. She lived through this with her mother, so she is a big help. I feel very fortunate to have met Button. Every bit a lady and takes no crap, listens to no foul words and is very moral. For those of you who know me she is the exact opposite of who I would pick for a friend. Maybe I am mellowing out, because I know have two friends like that. Lynda who I have know for about 3 years and Button who I known for about 16 months.
I need to start posting atleast weekly because I forget the changes in Maribeth and she changes everyday>
