“In Alzheimer's disease, the mind dies first: Names, dates, places, the interior scrapbook of an entire life fade into mists of nonrecognition.”
When a person has Alzheimer's, their brain gives out first. People's identities, times, locations, and the whole vast awareness of the person's total spirit are destroyed.

Alzheimer's are really such a scary thing! I am really worried about being diagnosed with them when I am older. I haven't had any family members that have had it, but i have known people and went around nursing homes and experienced first hand of Alzheimer's. I can see your passionate about this so keep up the great work!
