POEM
Thank You to a Caregiver
One day I woke up and forgot my name.
I couldn’t remember who I was and if I was ever happy.
I even forgot if I had a husband or wife and any children.
I sometimes spend my days just staring into space or walking in circles trying to see or get to someplace that I can’t even remember,
And then you came along, like a beacon of light, and awakened me.
You helped me find my smile again.
It was your gentle touch and your kind words that help me along through my journey.
I’m sorry I don’t remember your name----
But please know I appreciate all you do.
Sincerely,
Any Individual with Dementia- JMD
