The way it's supposed to be.

Alzheimer care-givers. They are in dire need of sustenance. And amazing. Where that sustenance comes from. Yes, from my dear sweet Alzheimer-riddled Jeanne. At first, it was an agonizing task. But gradually, over the 13-year journey, it became pure pleasure. Not when I was a 24/7 care-giver. But for the last 38 months. When Jeanne was in a nursing home. And I became a rested 8-10 hour a day care-giver. Focused and rested. And in love. We were getting sustenance. From each other. The way it's supposed to be. --Jim Broede
