Patti - Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your post. You know exactly how I felt. My husband had Parkinson's Disease for 11 years and the dementia was "PD induced". His favorite times were taking Gidget for rides around the neighborhood on his electric wheel chair. All he had to do is ask her if she was ready to go out and ride and she would jump up and down until I put her in the pak-a-pal. He was quite a bit older than your hubby (74) and he was 16 years older than me. I'm thankful I was able to take care of him and then take care of her little bundle of joy...Gidgie.
Again thank you for your post.
