Re: [Serious] How do you deal with it? I can't imagine! 
I guess, the closest I can empathise with is, I have an Uncle, I usta go fishing with as a boy, that has Alzheimer's disease. 
He & his wife came to my moms funeral, a few years ago, and they rang the door, and I answered. Of course I recognised him, but he didn't know me. He introduced himself, and I told him who I was....he started crying. 
What was worse, 'bout an hour later, he introduced himself to me again. I smiled and told him who I was.....again. 
It must be horrible to watch a loved ones' mind fade, little by little. 
One more reason to keep doin' what we are doin', my friends!! -- F@H console client Apply directly to the forehead! |
