Alzheimers-My Heart Breaks

I have a friend that i have known since junior high. We never had and still don't have much in common but i respected and loved her and her family. First her grandmother passed from Alzheimers. then her mother passed away from Alzheimers. My friend reached out to me and asked me how i was doing. Pretty good I responded. She said "Well better than me. I have Alzheimers"

It is genetic. Just like a light switch was turned on. I told her i loved her, i will be up to see her in June and asked if i could take her to our high school reunion. She said she didn't know what shape she would be in.

Last night, i talked to her daughter. They are placing her in the psych ward because her meds have caused her body to be out of whack. It hurts my heart.
