CAN'T GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD

Language lost. Words irretrievable. Connection

broken. Cut off, you wrack your brain, yet not

even a comparable word for the word you need

comes to mind. There is no bridge between the

cerebellum and your hand. And the days grow

longer, darker. It’s heartbreaking. You can’t

entertain yourself by solving puzzles.

You can’t even comprehend the newspaper or

a novel. Nerve cells die while brain tissue is lost

due to the build-up of betaamyloid

plaques and tau protein tangles. Alzheimer’s

dementia is devastating.
