Moonrise, I just looked at your quilt pictures -- fabulous! Dementia is truly terrible, not only for the patient but for the family and friends. And it is becoming more and more common -- maybe because we're surviving other things that might kill us! Glad to have you on the AAQI bandwagon!

I just registered them, and will post photos when I get the registration numbers. This is the first time I've done this, so hopefully I did it right. (Edited to add: Here's a sneak peak.)

Both my great-grandmother ("Mammaw") and my grandmother ("Granny") developed Alzheimers in their later years. It was heartbreaking to see them lose their abilities. I dearly hope that a cure can be found (and soon!) for this horrible disease.
