Six years ago Dottie’s husband, Tom Gandy, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and, by default, Dottie became his full-time caregiver.  At first, she thought…” well, how hard can this be?”  She was not prepared for the answer which came quickly:  very challenging.  Dottie shared several sweet stories, like when she knew something was wrong with Tom, how she answered Tom when Tom would repeatedly ask, “What’s for dinner?”  and how she learned to embrace playing 2-3 hours of gin rummy daily instead of dreading. I learned, and continue to learn, a ton from Mrs. Dottie Gandy, and I hope our interview brought you value.
