I have an 89-year-old friend with dementia who has told me this story dozens of times, and i want to share it with you.
Mrs. Jones had no children of her own but she invited little phyllis and her school friends to cut through her property to avoid a very long journey to and from school. Not only that, but she regularly baked cookies and offered them to the children on their return home.
As it turns out, this is phyllis's predominant memory, and when she tells me the story she is always happy and grateful. I often say- 'phyllis, if mrs. Jones knew that you are remembering her acts of kindness after all these decades, it would warm her heart. '
At those times i feel mrs. Jones smiling down on us!

I've found ,for me it's the little changes that start a big change - in who i want to be! Today i'm reminded of our friend's funeral tomorrow,with her dementia she was mentally gone from us for about two and half years. Except for the last visit-she looked up with a great big smile,looked into my eyes and said "well hi there". Nearly made me cry - she was still there, now and then. Now i say to her- "peaceful journey and see you later"!
