One day Della called Emma. Emma said, “how did you find me, you know I moved.” Della said, “no, I didn't.“
Emma's husband Bob picked the phone up and said “Della, we lived here 30 years.” Emma has the beginning stages of Dementia.
Soon after Bob died.
Emma's daughter came to live with her along with her young son. When Della calls now, Emma remembers some things from the past but not much of the present. Emma says Bob is working.
Dementia has taken away the memory that Bob is gone.
