Poignant and accurate, Lt. My late wife and I enjoyed our last encounter shortly before she went (willingly) into a nursing home. Thereafter, I said no. She had regressed to pre-puberty emotionally, and I couldn’t handle it. We still cuddled, though.

My heart goes out to you. Over the years this disease has affected those a couple of generations above me, to now affecting my peers. A vast majority of folks have not seen it up close and personal.

What is lost in translation is that the “victims” are people who have personalities, fears, loves, and everything else that “we” have.

They have the same range of emotions and desires.
