Last
year when we were given pen pals that had Alzhemiers,
we got to learn all about what alzhemiers is. We even
got to meet our pen pals and this was a good learning
experience.
Two
of my pen pals unfortunately died and I found this was
sad. I began to think I was bad luck. I did get to meet
my third pen pal "Hattie" though. I found that
she looked like any other older person. The thing that
made her different was that she asked me the same questions
over and over again. For example "What is your name?" seemed
to be the one she asked the most. She also liked to talk
about her husband.
There
was another lady I met named "Ruby". She was
funny and could still play the piano. We sang Christmas
carols along with her. I don't think I will ever forget
her.
