SISTERS   ~~~~~~~~~~~~   My mother with her sister Viola. This was at a Victorian Day Picnic In the town where my mother lived. she still had the sparkle in her eyes. My mother had the most beautiful eyes. Her eyes are still beautiful but the Sparkle has gone. That is the first thing I noticed before she was diagnosed with Alzheimers that her eyes looked so differant. She use to say " look at me  " she would ask,doesn't it look like there is something differant.? I always said NO.!! But I did notice that her eyes lost the sparkle.
