Look out world here I come

Hey, okay maybe not the world but where ever I am needed. I have been chosen to be on the National Alzheimer's Advisory Board. I am excited. Stacy our director for my area in Louisiana called me with the news Wednesday. I am patiently waiting for my packet from National. Nay, I do not know what the word patient means. lol I am waiting, checking the mail everyday. I hope the first meet and greet if there is a such thing is after Jesse's heart cath on 7/21/2008. With my luck that will be the day I am suppose to be somewhere. It's been a quite summer so far but I am sure it will not be so later. I am excited about alot of things dealing with National. Get to meet new people, getting to educate others, just the whole thing about being chosen is an honor. So say a little prayer for me and my family. Pray for Jesse. He understands me better than anyone and he needs to stay well. I told him I would beat him back to life if he died on me. lol. While cleaning off my computer table I found this: Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail. That is what we as people with dementia of any kind are having to do. There is so much how there that people have no clue about what dementia is all about.
