jkom51 ~ I am going through some very hard times with my dad's health. He has many issues with his lungs and heart. It is hard for me to know if he is at end-stage dementia. It seems he has all the symptoms of middle-stage and some of end-stage so it is hard to judge. In all honesty, I would say he is at end-stage but he does recognize some folks but doesn't carry on conversations. Once in a while he is more lucid and shares how he is feeling but it doesn't last too long. I just wanted to thank you for sharing the website on long-term care planning. I have been reading it and, especially, the advice and clarification of dementia. Robyn

Thx for the responses. I'm pretty much a homebody due to health issues and do mostly all my shopping online. The internet has been a boon to me. Win 8.1 on an HP. All that's on it (that I can find) are a few games with very limited usage. Then you have to buy or join the gaming group and purchase 'coins' and pay as you play. I've checked Amazon, my #1 go to place. They've so many games, I was weary from wading thru them. Hence the decision to find the three or four I listed. I also have an iPad and have an assortment of word games that I enjoy when I have time. I'll check out the Jigsaw puzzle link. Sheila

I had a look, thanks. Had a look at your software too. I downloaded two programs which I never heard of :)

I didn't buy the CD because I didn't want the thread kit that ran the whole thing up to almost $150 with tax. I have enough thread and do hand cross stitch with every DMC color known. I discussed this with the dealer and told her the colors were off according to what the statues colors are and why I didn't want the thread kit, just the CD. The CD embroideries were licensed by the convent who owns the Hummel rights and digitized from the original paintings done over 60+ years ago...paintings probably have never been cleaned although archieved so you know the colors are off, especially on skin tones. The figurines are painted with oxide glaze colors I prefer.
