Grandmother With Alzheimer's Disease

family by Holly Reyes 8/18/2016

This granddaughter opens up her world into what it's like to relive the same day exact over and over. It's not for fame or sympathy, it's only to raise awareness and spread the truth about what it's like to have Alzheimer's disease. Allowing her grandma who is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease to live with her, she encounters the same conversations, the same struggles, and the same memories each day. Her grandma asks her several questions, never remembering the right answer. But this compassionate granddaughter does whatever it takes to make sure her grandma feels loved. She takes care of her patiently, which is just what she needs in times like this.

The insecurity of not knowing where she is or where her husband went is the burden this grandma feels. The day her husband died wasn't easy, but having to hear for the first time every day that he passed away and that she will never see him again is a sadness we could never understand. As these two women are in the car on a trip, this granddaughter secretly films their conversation.

For the past two years grandma has been living with her granddaughter, and before that she would visit every weekend. Strangely enough, familiarity is nothing that helps Alzheimer's, and this grandma is often reminded of who her granddaughter is. When she discovers this time who she is, her response is utterly heart-warming. Watch the video below to find out the truth about Alzheimer's.
