Living with the Lost Ones

Reading aldersmith’s poetic memoir gave impetus to the stories I have, not yet written, of my experiences as a volunteer in a dementia facility. My husband, Dave, has been there since March. I spend fifteen to twenty hours a week with him, his fellow residents, and many amazingly generous caregivers. What I am looking for is input on how this might play out. This is the only vignette I have written. There is no plot, of course, though much excitement often.
