@Bill T Same with me. My sweet mother, Lord bless her soul, I watched suffer from that damn disease, Alzheimer's. She went from a strong black mother who raised two sons and worked many, I mean, many years in the federal government, to literally infantile, fists clinched, staring out into nothingness, barely able to eat and looking, well, her face told the whole story. Died in 2007 while her aid was giving her dinner at home from cardiac arrest. My mother had me at 44, soon to be 45 in 1966 believe it or not. Now a days, women are having babies even after 50. I'm still grieving and it's hard to have seen her suffer like that. Then I reminisce about the funny times, the fun times and happy times. :)
