Douglas Blevins, of Port Clinton. Ohio, has been living with Alzheimer's for 11 years. Douglas, 69. and his wife Marian ignored the symptoms for four years before they finally went to the doctor. By then, Douglas' Alzheimer's had advanced from moderate to severe. Unfortunately, his Alzheimer's had advanced too far for him to be a candidate for art therapy.
