Roller Coaster Ride.

Sweetie. 

Can it be that today is the day? The day you ask? Yes, the day that I can stop this roller coaster ride. We both know it isn't. There are still ups and downs still left. Slow rises and quick downs. There are the spinning tight curves to navigate, the loop to loops to survive, and the end always seems right around the corner, yet when we get there, it leads to another stretch of track. 

Funny isn't it? How I can wish for the end to come soon, and at the same time, I'm so thankful for each and every day that I have with Sweetie. She is teaching me to be someone that I thought I would never be, and to have an understanding of undemanding love. To give and at the same time, receive what she can give back. Her love is pure, for she doesn't have any impurities left inside of her. 

I'm learning to know when she is bored while we are watching a show. Her face seems to become hard, stone like, and I know it is time to move. So, into the car we go, and down to the mall for a walk around, or a drive around town, just something to get her out of where we were. Usually about an hour and she will reset and track well for the rest of the day. 

Eating is beginning to fail more and more. Last night I was loading her fork with food, and she would then put the food in her mouth. I think it won't be long before I have to feed her myself. I know that is one of the stops along the way to Dementia Town. 

The Road to Dementia Town isn't the same for you and me, it is my own and the only way for me to get there in one piece is to keep riding with my Driver. He knows the stops, and can help me prepare for them, as we go. Down the Road to Dementia Town, with our Shiny Side Up. I can see your following us, for there is a vehicle with its Shiny Side Up behind us. C'ya, Love Ya and God Bless.
