I have just begun this blog about my mother who was diagnosed with Dementia three years ago. I am documenting events which have happened over the past three years with her, and would like to share them with others who are dealing with parents or loved ones with Dementia.

Hi,
I have started blogging about what it is like for our multigenerational household, ages 6-73, to live with my mom's dementia. If you check out the blog and feel it would be a good addition here and helpful to others, please add it to your list.
This is a great resource and I have found new blogs to follow. -Thanks

I'd like to suggest my blog. My husband was diagnosed with MCI in December 2009, but that was changed to Lewy-Body in February 2011. I am 50 and my husband is 56, and together we have a son who is a high school freshman. I'd love for people to follow my blog on www.caregiving.com where I blog as G-J.
