I wrote this about a year after my Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimers and shortly before my Mom was

officially diagnosed. Where? The missing money. The lost keys. Where are my glasses? Someone must have stolen them. Where did they go? The surroundings have changed. When did we get this house? How can we pay for it? Someone moved our house. Where did it go? A marriage that is displaced. Who is this woman? Where is my wife? Someone must have taken her. Where did she go? The memories that disconnect. You are my son? When did we have you? Someone else must have raised you. Where did he go? A life slowly disappears. Who is this man? Where is my Dad? Something has taken him away. Where did you go? - Roger Bushnell
