I had a vague idea that Alzheimers had something to do with losing memories, but I knew nothing of its deeply tragic effects. By visiting these patients, I not only learned about the disease, but also about what makes us human. My mission was to encapsulate memories before they were forgotten, but looking back, I think I have captured something else. Even without memories, these people were able to teach me about the world a world they are slowly parting from with every forgotten name. Families dealing with Alzheimers disease experience things that most of us will never have to live through. Seeing someone you love look at you with vacant eyes is one of the most heartbreaking sights. When all the past fights and memories are gone, families are left with what is really important love. Whether you know someone struggling with Alzheimers disease, or whether you are just an outside observer, I hope through these stories you gain insight into this disease. Thank you for joining me in my Meetings with Alzheimers. Be happy [with] what you have. -Adi (patient)
