Maybe Dotty will win again. If she does I’ll say — Chicken Wings. ….. By Bob DeMarco Alzheimer’s Reading Room Those of you that are following along know that Dotty is in the moderate to severe stage of Alzheimer’s disease. She was officially diagnosed with dementia more than five years. Its not unusual for Dotty to say, I’m hungry, I’m starving within ten to fifteen minutes of eating. It is not unusual for Dotty to ask right around 3:30 in the afternoon, did we eat today? When I say yes we ate, she sometimes asks what did we eat? When I tell her she usually gets this bewildered look on her face. Like she can’t believe it. Sometimes she challenges me and says she didn’t eat. Not anything. She honestly believes she has not had a thing to eat all day. Many of you know the drill. Dotty really doesn’t remember much of anything. Sometimes we spend two or three hours in an outdoor restaurant. When we drive back by the restaurant on the way home Dotty will say, wow, look at that place we should go there some time. I asked Dotty right after her 4 hour birthday party last year how she liked the birthday cake. She answered, what birthday cake? I am use to this by now
