When I worked for the bookmobile team at the library, we often visited nursing homes where some of the residents suffered extreme dementia and similar mental issues. It was sometimes strange and surreal, but always disconcerting. But we expect some folks to lose their marbles as they age. It's hard to see one's parents fade. It has to be supremely difficult to see that in a child, though. I can only imagine the struggle.

My Mother cared for people with Alzheimer's in her home for over 30 years, it is a sad, sad disease. The people themselves are happy, it is the families who suffer.
