I was in line with the regulars.īob: Yeah, and it was worth the wait, wasn't it?ĭennis: It was. They both reside in the great city of Philadelphia, where I had a Philly cheesesteak one time in downtown Philly.ĭennis: It wasn't any kind of tourist trap. David Powlison edits the Journal of Biblical Counseling. He is also a counselor, a faculty member at Westminster Seminary. But it's been great to have you on the broadcast and have you with us all this week.ĭennis: Ed is the author of a book called, Blame It on the Brain. We've had several phone calls and e-mails, and I'm sure letters will be in the mailbox in the coming days about what we talked about yesterday.ĭennis: Yes. David, Ed, I want to thank you for being on the broadcast all this week. We have with us a couple of counselors who have spent a great deal of time researching this subject as well as others. And yet as I've watched her grow older and older as she goes past the age of 90, you know, it just seems to me, as a child, just a real tragedy to watch someone that you love go through this. My mom is a very funny person, a great sense of humor, bright, very connected emotionally in conversation. It is a disease that really destroys a human being's dignity. You know, I don't think anyone is ready for the diagnosis. A year ago last fall, went to the hospital, and the doctors said she now has Alzheimer's disease. Then about a year ago it became clear, after I'd been up there a number of times, that my mom was suffering from dementia. So we wrote it in big letters with arrows pointing to the cool and the heat, being able to help her keep her home appropriately warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Today we're going to talk about something that I know is personal for you.ĭennis: Back about a year and a half ago or so, my mom couldn't keep track of the thermostat, and just couldn't remember how to set the thermostat. We've been talking this week about those things that - well, it's kind of, Dennis, a cross between what's going on spiritually, what's going on emotionally, what's going on physically in a person's life, and trying to make some sense out of things like attention deficit disorder, which we talked about yesterday, depression and bipolar, we talked earlier about homosexuality, and is there something in the brain or in the genes that determines that. Thanks for joining us on the Thursday edition. We’re going to talk today about caring for and loving someone who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.Īnd welcome to FamilyLife Today. Our host is the President of FamilyLife, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine. The first thing I think with Alzheimer's is this is a true servanting relationship that I need grace to be a servant to my parents where there is not a perk that we get back from it, but it brings great glory to Christ all the same.īob: This is FamilyLife Today for Thursday, June 30th. There's a give-and-take, and there's something enjoyable about that relationship. Ed Welch.Įd: Usually in our relationships there is some sort of perk. The Sufferer & the Witness, their 4th album, continues to build upon the solid punk foundation - it is a striking collection, with Rise Against using elements from spoken word, expanded balladry, and simply plodding forward with a faster, harder, louder ethic.Bob: Jesus said "Greater love has no man than this that he lay down his life for a friend." That's certainly the case if you are a caregiver to someone with Alzheimer's disease. We're a band that's done everything from hardcore songs to pop songs to acoustic ballads that get played on the radio,' says vocalist/guitarist Tim McIlrath. An astounding fusion of unhinged power, ear-grasping melodies, stimulating lyrics and the ability to reach audiences in both underground and mainstream circles, they have redefined the rules. Chicago's Rise Against is anything but a single-minded musical outfit.
