Never mind the neurons.

Perhaps
Alzheimer's Disease reveals
'the real person'
both in the 'sufferer'
and the carer.

If so, can the condition
be called disease ?

(Just talking to myself.
 It would be insane not to.)

I'm concerned Alzheimer's will reveal my true repugnant self.

Less loathsome than the impatience I displayed on occasion while caring for two of its sufferers when I was an adolescent. One old enough to know better.

Out of the volumes of all my indiscretions, the thought of it still makes me wince. Sometimes I utter a cry out loud.

Wouldn't it be fitting that I forget while my addled nature is on full display, unwitting, a fop for others to witness?

Even more so than my activities now? Now that is an amusing proposition, unable to control the outcome. No different than my faculties can achieve now ...
