<br />
I also noticed that Dotty is starting to engage with new Harvey in a way that I have not seen in months. The conversations are longer and more detailed. This morning I was singing very loud and new Harvey was singing along with me. Dotty was looking right at the parrot as if she was mesmerized. When I stopped the parrot stopped. Dotty looked at new Harvey and said, "you have a good voice".<br />
<br />
I wish I had taken a video of Dotty looking at the parrot, she really was engaged. Engaged in a way that was very noticeable to me. Very different than what I have been seeing of late.<br />
<br />
Watch the video here<br />

Max wrote about the last great big laugh he heard from his Great Grams. It was obviously vivid in his mind. See <i><b><a href="http://www.alzheimersreadingroom.com/2010/02/plaid-pajamas-and-last-big-laugh.html">The Plaid Pajamas and the Last Big Laugh.</a></b></i><br />
<br />
This reminded me of one of the saddest periods in my life. My mother didn't laugh for over two years. She rarely smiled during this period. Severe heartache, it hurt.<br />
<br />
I would look over and there would be mom. The glassy eyed look, the stare into what must be either confusion or "nowhere". The look of Alzheimer's and dementia.<br />

Dotty is complaining to me that her knees are hurting. This happens every day. I don't remember her ever complaining about her knees back in the days when we were going to the gym.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a> <br />
In a few minutes I'll start convincing Dotty that we need to go to the pool for some exercise. I already know that she is going to say NO several many times. I know this because I started working on her a few hours ago. Dotty has already told me NO over and over.<br />
