Rabbits jump around the green grass, soaking up warmth, delighting you. Daffodils are up; robins have returned. You survey this dazzling day with bright eyes.

Without warning, you retreat into your world. “When will it stop snowing?” you wonder out loud. “It’s so cold!”

The Alzheimer’s again… We miss you.
