My Mom couldn't really understand what was going on with Dad.
My mom passed away just one month shy of her 80th Birthday. But through her sixties and most of her seventies could run circles around us girls. A bundle of energy. She was in the early stages, but we could definately see the personality changes. And of course you'd see her get this lost look in her eyes and then stiffen her spine and begin walking really riggidly as attempting to shake it off. She didn't die of the disease, she died of a broken heart. As my stepfather passed away earlier in that same year.
