A friend gave me the name of two blogs that talk about Alzheimer, One of Life’s Little Surprises that you mentioned and also Alice in Memoryland (https://aliceinmemoryland.com/.) I had not visited blogs in a while but went on theirs in the last couple of days and wrote two long comments, explaining our situation, in case you are interested. My biggest problem about moving is that we have been bookworms for decades and have full bookshelves in every room. It is hard to decide which ones to give – I guess most of them. Then I have a box ready to go and my husband comes and takes everything out … Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-53871998817578310922017-06-02T13:32:20.615-07:002017-06-02T13:32:20.615-07:00Hi Vagabonde - and welcome!!

And even better, we're dealing with the reluctance of one of us to get rid of treasures like 3 shoeboxes of postcards from his grandfather in World War I. <br />Yes, I'm sure those posters are worth something, but who has the energy to search out a buyer?Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02366449267039641100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-6357286520802209142017-06-02T13:27:52.796-07:002017-06-02T13:27:52.796-07:00Came to your blog, via Elephant’s Child, and enjoy...Came to your blog, via Elephant’s Child, and enjoyed your post. Have you tried the Kidney Foundation? In our area (Atlanta suburb) they come to our home and pick up many things. I am also trying to clear out 40 years of accumulation for a move to another house closer to family as I am the sole caregiver for my husband. It is not going too well as I have to use two canes now and cannot move easily, but will get an operation soon. It is hard to give up all these things, some could be valuable? Just found some original Grateful Dead posters from San Francisco from the 60s in the garage and other little souvenirs.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-1138473205024585162017-06-02T13:07:04.083-07:002017-06-02T13:07:04.083-07:00I understand more than you'll ever know.I understand more than you'll ever know.
