Oh she has had the dementa coming on for quite sometime now Dotsie, but some days its worse than others. In fact I am the one who pointed it out to her friend/caregiver. She hadn't noticed the little things. I wasn't with her as much so noticed those small tell tale signs when I was around her. I saw them yesterday and Ruth seemed fine, her old self, but one never knows from one day to the next, heck with dementa not knowing from one minute to the next is more accurate.

As far as her story if it hadn't been for ALL of her diaries and journals and newspaper clippings and the stuff she did remember I could have never written her story. I never spent so much time on the computer and telephone researching. Plus she was a camera buff and took thousands of pictures of all the historical items and times. Most were lost at sea when a ship sank but she still have tons. Her life story is nothing less than amazing.
