I have decided to make a change in my life. I wrote a prescription for myself – It’s called “A Prescription to Life.”

My life as been tough for years I have been doing the same thing like clockwork almost every day.   It goes like this works -

I wake up, get dress and head to work. It’s a great day everything going great. Then, I get off work, turn the ignition of the car and start my drive home, suddenly, I hear a voice. The voice of what I believe is the devil enticing me by saying, ” It want hurt to have just a little drink, and why your at at it pick up a pack of cigarettes.”

I’ve been doing this every day since 1994 . When life gets rough the only way I know how to deal with it is drinking. I didn’t want to think. My manic thoughts run wild with all kinds of scenarios, mostly negative. But now, I face a new obstacle in my life where I have no choice but to change and enter a new realm of life and that’s Alzheimer’s & Dementia.  On January 27, 2009, my dad had a bad fall. One lousy day our lives changed forever.  How?
