regrets only
I just found out that my grandfather, the one who disowned us in 2007, has the beginning symptoms of Alzheimer's with dementia... they're putting him on some medication to delay the symptoms but I know it will get bad eventually...
I almost wish I could have contact with him... mainly for the sole purpose of having some memory of him before it gets worse. I started going through it with Memaw before the cancer took her. I know I will regret it if I never do... to not remember him as the crotchety old man who actually played the grandfather role in the early years of my life would be almost a dishonor.
and even if I don't... I hope he remembers all the good, happy times in his life as long as his mind can... I do wish that for him even if I never speak or see him before it comes to an end...
