grandma pat and grandpa bruce

Doug’s parents live in an Alzheimer's facility a couple of hours away from Melanie’s house. Since Thursdays are the early release day from school for the boys, we decided to take advantage of the extra time and make an adventure.

Bruce was delighted to see us and though his wife doesn’t even begin to resemble her pre-alzheimer self, it is obvious that he adores her.

Pat loved seeing Melanie’s boys. She was upset that Doug had married me without telling her and kept trying to introduce me to Melanie.  Dear sweet woman, I miss you.
