I would want to go quietly if I knew Alzheimer's was in the post.
I feel like a burden on my family while I'm able to talk and appreciate them in person, let alone if they became frightening strangers to me.

Mum thinks Dad has Alzheimer's. Well, she says she does, I think it's the meanest thing she can think to say to him when his forgetfulness annoys her. The downside of an older husband I guess. I'll tell her about the test, that might make her stop and consider what she's actually saying.
