		<description><![CDATA[Tom and Margaret Canning have been married for 54 years. It’s a journey that has taken the pair, both natives of Ireland, from dancing in New York City to playing golf in Florida.
Alzheimer’s disease has marked the last decade of their marriage. Margaret, 79, has the disease and Tom, 82, takes care of her and their home in Pembroke Pines.


“We’re at the stage now where we don’t hold conversation. She will ramble on things that don’t have any meaning,” Canning said.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["I was flying by the seat of my pants," says Baldocchi, an employment specialist in San Francisco. Both of her parents are 83, and she knew her father couldn't handle her mother's care.

The hospital recommended putting her mother in a nursing home. Baldocchi wasn't willing to do that. But moving her back into her parents' home created other problems.

Baldocchi, 48, is married and lives about a mile away from her parents. She has a full-time job and has back problems that make it difficult for her to lift her mother. "I couldn't do it all," she says. "But I didn't even know how to find help."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Being the host of "Entertainment Tonight" for ten years taught Leeza Gibbons how to fill time on TV. Being an Alzheimer's caregiver taught her how to make time count.   Most people know Leeza Gibbons from her ten years as host of the TV tabloid Entertainment Tonight, or her six years on the daytime talk show Leeza. But a growing number are beginning to know her for her efforts on behalf of those dealing with Alzheimer's disease, which grew out of her own family's experience.

To anyone familiar with Leeza's Places, her rest-and-reenergize stations for Alzheimer's families, the story is familiar: Gibbons's mother, Gloria Jean, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 1999 -- after witnessing her own mother's long struggle with the disease. Knowing only too well what lay ahead for her, Gloria Jean Dyson Gibbons gathered her family to give them instructions for coping as her disease progressed. She urged her daughter to "tell this story and make it count."]]></description>
