280→Husband Journey: A Garden of Memories — 10 Comments

  1. Hi Sue,
    It does sound as if the stents have helped his memory. That is wonderful. I hope he continues to improve
    It is interesting that you wrote about face blindness as I was recently talking with a good friend whose husband had face blindness. He often couldn’t tell characters apart when watching movies and relied on her to clue him in so he could follow the plot. he was a brilliant mathematician and master of bridge and college professor. But he was also tone deaf. My friend has perfect pitch. It occurred to me that face blindness and tone deafness might be in some way related and studies showed that they are on same area of brain and there is a correlation in that some people have both deficits. Neither of their children inherited either perfect pitch or tone deafness and neither has face blindness. I guess I’m still interested in psychology. Thanks for your posts that help keep my mind active. Love, your ‘lainie

  2. So enjoyed your read all about Robert and his upcoming procedures. I just pray Robert get’s more blood flow to his brain. I actually know that helps…IT is so great to hear you get out with facetime and Robert and get to enjoy and share flowers different things at home with him. I just am thankful for your news on Robert. You know your family has gone thru so much.You Susan are a great person. God Bless your family..Love your Friend Joann

  3. What a wonderful step forward (albeit baby step), but sharing a smile and a good laugh is medicine for the soul–yours and Bob’s. Perhaps some of the boulders along this terribly rocky road forward have moved. WE can only pray the forward path continues! Hugs and prayers from me always.

    My best friend and ex-colleague, Tony, passed away doing just this with a few close friends and family for several years beforehand. He was a victim of MS, and as he declined so did his faculties.
    I loved the man, and we were very close and had spent a lot of time together in our working days as colleagues and friends. Like ‘Friends’ before the TV program successfully syndicated such relationships. 😊
    Tony was so profound in too many ways to list here. So, use your imagination. But it was great using IT to stay in touch, especially for me living so far away and his progressive decline making it so that he was unable to visit. A friend he’d grown up with had even kept him on her iPad as she went about her daily business and chores, all of which he found so soothing bed bound, himself.
    Tony died at the end of 2013, and so much has advanced in technology since then…so much to allow these other souls we cherish to stay in contact in better ways that enrich the remainder of their lives…and ours. ❤️

  5. My dear Susan, This sounds like a very positive visit. You deserve these once in awhile if not all time time. Hold on to these days. BTW, I suffer from face blindness. Not a good thing when I worked in HR.
    Robert has a beautiful smile. I was happy after reading this blog.
    Love,
    Pat

  6. Laughing is good for the soul! If one is able to laugh. What a beautiful smile Robert has!! Stay cool in all this awful heat!!

    🥰❤️🦋🧚
