Dementia
Those who enter into marriage for life, doubtless have visions of what their life will look like with their partner as they age together. Perhaps these visions will involve seeing children off to college or attending their daughter’s wedding. Maybe they are looking forward to cruises together, or quiet afternoons spent gardening.
Or maybe they’re looking forward to the positive side of dementia. No? Bear with me! This wife is looking forward to being able to recycle all of her old stories with her husband. It sounds sensible really, thinking up new ways to make interesting conversation is hard. I’m not sure he’s too keen on what that would mean in practice, though.
