Thank you for your tribute poem to Fia and Hank plus adding a reference to Brooke's condition. It seems at our age, we each have a "struggle" of some sort. I am sorry to learn that Hank has Alzheimer's but glad that Dutchie has help in caring for him. Take good care of yourself- Joan

I find you to have a heart of gold. It is kind of you to share with us this news regarding your friend's health. I am sure all will be praying for them. I know all to well problems associated with Alzheimer's because my mother is battling this awful disease. Thanks for sharing. Portia

Lovely poem for your friends dear Ine.
Friends are wonderful, they are angels
chosen by us. So sorry Henk has Alzheimer's,
but, as you say, very common at his age.
It was a pleasure reading your poem this
Sunday morning.
Have a lovely day dear Ine.

Ine, you are very nice to bring Fia and Henk's story up so we can know about it. I sometimes wonder how other countries approach the treatment of Alzheimer's.

There certainly is a lot of 'loving' communication between these two, and
is so touching to see. God willing each will cope as best they can, and
love will ease the flaws and toils. Thanks for sharing...
Blessings, Ronni

Hi Ine,

I haven't really interacted with Dutchie on this site.

What a sad plight, poor lady.

Thank you for sharing this bit of news.

God bless Fia and Henk.
