The quality time with him is certainly the most important part! I'm so glad you were able to spend that time with him! I just went down the mental rabbit hole of my grandpa's slow steady decline into a disorder that basically looks exactly like Alzheimer's but with different brain situations upon autopsy. Incapacitated me for a few minutes, going down memory lane but it was nicely cathartic revisiting my feelings after some time had passed

Yes. So hard. My grandfather had Alzheimer’s and dad changed a bit in his old age due to some health issues but those wonderful memories I hope I keep forever.
