Enjoying the Present

"It is a mistake to look too far ahead.  The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time." Winston Churchill

How true.  As caregivers, we may think of the future with fear.  Knowing - with Lewy Bodies Dementia - that swallowing often becomes a problem, and choking or starvation can be the cause of death, sends me into great fear.  I pray my loved one is spared that.  But, there is nothing I can do about the course of this disease.  What I can do is enjoy him here and now in the present.
