An angel and her doll

This story comes to us from Viola Charles.  I have heard that doll therapy works great with an AD patient.  Here is an example of that. Thank you Viola for sharing.  Your mom truly sounds like an angel with a sweet heart.

My mom has had Alzhiemers for 11years now. There are 7 siblings including my daughter that my mom raised for me. My mom just turned 88 in February.  My mom is an Angel - she does not know anybody but she does know me because I take care of her 24/7.  My mom raised so many of us plus alot of nieces and nephews,grandkids etc... She loves every little kid that passes her way.She has a doll that she loves to love all day long.  She feeds her, kisses her and covers her with a blanket.  If I try to touch the doll she will pull on her and tell me NO!!!! LOL! 

Everyone told me to put her in a nursing home but I refused.  It is very hard because I also take care of my Dad who is 92years old but he is sharp as a tack...whewww!  My mom has her bad days but mostly good days..It is so sad to see someone go though this terrible disease.  I wish I had my momma back!!!!!!! :**(
