Tonight did not go as planned. When I left the house this morning we had our gym bags packed and planned to go to the gym for our "family work out" when we all got home this evening.
About 10am I go a text from Hubby saying that his step-mother had invited us out to dinner with his sister and her girls. We decided to go to Applebee's, it is kid friendly and had food that we could all eat. The three of us had a really fun time: MAC and the girls played made up games and colored, Hubby, SMom, Sis and I were able to talk about Hubby's Dad.
Hubby went to visit his father today. It was not a good visit, his Father knew Hubby's name but had him confused with the oldest son. I think Hubby felt better by the end of dinner and although Alzheimer's and Dementia are not fun subjects, it was good to hear from someone who is dealing with it every day, how well or not he is doing. SMom says that he is basically healthy, he is eating and as long as he sleeps and doesn't try to leave than he could lead a happy life for a long time.
Hubby's Dad is currently in a locked ward but SMom is planning on taking him to Florida where there is help for her taking care of him. She needs a few months to get her Florida house ready. But it looks as if we will be taking a trip to Florida soon.
