Please realize that that was just an early stage of the dementia surfacing.

 

Yes, of course.  I'm sorry it was so hard on all of you.  I wish it didn't have to be this way for so many seniors Smiley Sad

I bet it was not your imagination.  Just like my dad calling me the same term of endearment he's always used.  Such a cruel disease but at least we're given tiny glimmers of hope on rare occasions.

@monicakm    You know exactly how I feel.  I can't wait for the day this disease is eradicated!

This made me tear up as that is what my Dad called me too even with Dementia, so I know the happiness felt in that one little word!
