Dementia dialogues 12

on December 1, 2016

Anthony: How do you always find me? It’s remarkable!

Me: I have a really good map, and a really good memory.

Anthony: You look beautiful.

Me: Wow, thanks, Ants! You look good too.

Anthony: I need to get rid of this moustache.

Me: What? You don’t have a moustache, Ants – you haven’t had a moustache for years.

Anthony: So what do I have?

Me: Well, you have a lack of moustache I guess….

Anthony: Mmm.

Me: Could we resume this discussion tomorrow?

Anthony: Yes, just bring chocolate.

    Ha Ha! Chocolate just makes everything better. It’s clear how you’ve “raised the bar” when it comes to how much he loves you!

    A man after my own heart. Chocolate 🙂

  6. Yes bring chocolate, chocolate is good, I don’t think I would know Tim if he didn’t have a moustache
