An Anniversay to celebrate

My mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s about a year ago. It was no surprise to me. Her memory was already failing her when she retired 18 years earlier. My mom was not an overtly loving woman and she didn’t teach me many social skills. But she instilled in me a high moral standard and for that I am thankful. We celebrated my parents’ 63rd anniversary today. We all knew this would probably be the last anniversary that my mom would know who my dad is.
