    Susan, I stumbled upon your art through Garchen Rinpoche. I am one of the people caring for my grandmother, who has mid-late stage Alzheimers and has been a lifelong follower of Garchen. Her name is Rosemary, I don't know if you'll see this, but perhaps you and your husband knew her once upon a time. Thank you for taking the time to share your story. Your talk reminds me the world is smaller than we think, and so many of our experiences more common than we realize, even though, when caregiving, it's easy to feel very alone. Sending you lots of love and wishing you all the best.

    Wow that was really something. You are very special. I can't imagine seeing your soulmate deteriorate in front of your eyes and you can only try and comfort him. I don't think people realize what caregivers have to go through. It opened my eyes.

    Jack here. This was perfect and very moving. Thanks. I remember Bob well from the gym, he was always so very nice and friendly. My Balinese grandmother had dementia - what you said about the Balinese way of handling it is very true. She went from being one of my best friends ever to not having a clue who I was. Much love to you.

      Thank you Sandeh. Your support has meant so much. Now I need to get the book more visible - Piece by Piece: Love in the Land of Alzheimer's. It's a good read.

      Thank you for watching and sharing it. I feel caregivers need to be recognized and given more support.
