Our Journey is a true story of how one couple got through the trials and tribulations of dealing with early onset Alzheimers. When his wife started calling him at work because she was lost while driving around their small town, he started to wonder what was going on. She would always play it off as being tired or she just got turned around. As time went on, this behavior became a much more frequent occurrence. Sometimes he would have to spend thirty to forty minutes on the phone with her, until she was back in their own neighborhood. This went on for over two years before he insisted on her going to see a neurologist at the University of Michigan Hospital. After much testing and waiting for results we finally heard those dreaded words, your wife has Alzheimers. This is our story of how at that very moment our lives changed forever. Our family and friends changed forever and mostly not for the better. This is about our struggles in dealing with all of the different phases this disease puts a couple through. This is about my undying love for my wife and how I took care of her for ten long years.
