Dear Alzheimer’s

February 6, 2019

You took her away. Her body still roams around. She may speak once & awhile. She used to be the “Godfather” of the family… a title she earned. If you had a question, she knew the answer. She was talented beyond belief. You took her dignity, sense of safety & her clarity. You don’t deserve her. She was ours. You had no right! We will find a cure one day and destroy you!
