Sensitivity

Joshua has always been our sensitive child. He wears his heart on his sleeve and therefore his emotions remain unhidden.

Since the diagnosis he has become extremely emotional and cries all the time.

If I say, "We are going to see grandma." He will reply, "Which grandma?" If I say, "Grandma Nancy," his response is always, "Good. I need to see her. I need to spend all my time with her."

We are trying to come up with ways to help him deal with his feelings and his fears. He has been given much extra time with grandma since the diagnosis.

Today I am researching:

A) Memory Books
B) Support Groups for Grandchildren of those afflicted with Alzheimers
