The signs of late stage of Alzheimer's Disease – Part 1 - Alzheimer's 1

It was late Winter when I went to Claire's house.

Chilled outside but in the house was warm enough.

I saw an electric fireplace was on. Claire's uncle was sitting on his wheelchair in front of the fireplace. He was a big guy, and turned around.


Fig 01- A house, just for illustration

When he saw me, he unlocked his chair and get couples of little steps toward me and he moved his right hand toward me.

I thought he want to greet me by hand shaking, but he pulled my hand and kissed it.

He always did the same things to every woman. Women only. He can recognize between man and woman.

Not always! Because he ask about me to his nurse aid, “Who's the man?” I guessed he didn't see my ponytail.

He went back to his spot, in front of fireplace. He tried unbutton his top pajama, and took it off.

He wanted to put top pajama on through his feet. Claire came to him and fixed it.

He counted his pajama buttons, “One, two, three, four!” And he said, “Four!”

His nurse aid said, “Yes, you have four buttons.” He recount again and tell her, recount again and tell her, again, and again.

I ask Claire that is he easy get upset, angry, mad, or fight?

  1. O Alzheimer é uma doença que deixa a pessoa isolada com os pensamentos vagos,por não lembrar de nada e nem conhece sua própria família.

    Amiga, tenha um bom dia!
    Beijos.

  3. La temible enfermedad que hacía sufrir a Gabo. Para un escritor, es pavoroso sufrirla, y quizás la vaticinó en la peste del olvido de Cien años de soledad, pues García Márquez murió ya invadido por esa enfermedad de olvido. Un abrazo. Carlos

  6. Uma doença terrível sem dúvida. Infelizmente, é uma degenerativa que não tem regressão.
    Votos de um excelente fim de semana, e Feliz Natal!
