I'm like totally okay with Cheryle's mom having dementia... 
I mean, it's not all bad right? It's a chance for family members to get closer and stuff. But at the same time, I feel kinda bad for her having to deal with all that pain and loss... 
Like, who wouldn't want their mom to be happy and healthy, you know? 
And I love how photography brought her so much joy, but also made her look back on hard memories...
That's like, a double-edged sword, right? But it's also pretty cool that she's able to share all this with others and make them see things from her perspective. It's like, we're all human and we've all been through stuff...

I'm so glad I stumbled upon this thread, but now it's kinda late... 
Cheryle's story made me think about how photography can be a really powerful way to hold onto memories of loved ones who are struggling with dementia. I lost my grandma to Alzheimer's a few years ago, and it was like watching her fade away piece by piece. Her photos were one of the things that helped me keep her memory alive, you know? 
I gotta say, this woman Cheryle's story is really touching. Like, I can only imagine how hard it must've been for her to care for her mom like that. But at the same time, those moments of joy she captured on camera? That's just beautiful. It's amazing how something as simple as taking a picture can bring back memories and emotions. And I love how photography became this way for her, a way to hold onto the past and honor her mom's memory. It's really inspiring to see someone turn a difficult experience into something so positive and meaningful.
