I just finished rereading My Journey into Alzheimers Disease, and one of the later chapters talked about the spiritual effects of the disease. The author came to the same conclusion as Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

SP,

I heard DeMoss say those words in an interview with a mother whose daughter had become a missionary in South America.
The mother said that she had an eternity to spend with her daughter, so though it was difficult, she was at peace.

David Jeremiah's mother (or mother-in-law?) has Alzheimers... The first thing she did when they institutionalized her was to organize a Bible study. He said that she was most lucid when she prayed, which her Dr said was an indication of the prominent roll it played in her life.
