A very beautifully moving, articulate first-person piece by Greg O'Brien, a journalist with Alzheimer's.

I cannot give you a TLDR, because this piece offers the texture, the experience, of what it's like to live with Alzheimer's. He says, "when the brain fails: write and speak from the heart, the place of the soul."
