Paging Dr. Kevorkian... Poor fella. I wonder if there's ever going to be a kind of unanimous agreement policy for pre-dementia patients to authorize being put into a coma, then allowing family members to take them off life support... Seriously, most of us wouldn't want to live like that. It's hard for both the victim and the family.

My grandmother, my last remaining grandparent, actually, is in a home being cared for because she cannot function alone anymore... I haven't seen her in three years since I moved to the US and to be honest I doubt she'd remember who I am, and as for recognizing her great grandkids... well that one is completely out of the picture...
Alzheimers, dementia, whatever it is is a brutal thing indeed.

Environmental Biology is going to be incredibly draining. I don't know why a school would make a lecture class at 8 in the morning.
At one of the top party schools in New York. I'm not saying I party every night, but that doesn't make much sense to me. |

It is a strange and random illness sometimes too... last Christmas we called home to Australia and my grandmother remembered my wife and not me! Hehehehehe.... after some talking she remembered who I was though, so you're right, a little family attention can go a fair way.

A guy ran a red light and cut me off this morning...then honked at me like it was my fault. Being the stable person I am, I followed him to see if his house was on fire or if his wife was having a baby. Nothing, he wasn't even old, just driving like a maniac. Idiot drivers...
