    His reaction when everything turns white is quite accurate from what I've witnessed working in dementia aged care. People with dementia can't quite identify objects or features as anything and they often panic and freeze where they are until someone rescues them. I looked after a lady who found herself stuck in a corner because every time she tried to leave the corner she got to confused and just turned back around. Its a very abstract yet accurate depiction

      Yes. Being caught in the rat race of debt slavery and desperate for money to avoid homelessness in the great USA, I volunteered for a medical study in which an Alzheimer's drug was being tested. As soon as the drug hit my system, everything snapped into focus with super human perception for a handful of minutes. Then the drug wore off and the entire world became a fog that lasted several weeks. This story depicts that experience accurately. Luckily, the fog eventually lifted, although it's impossible to determine if completely, but I was able to pay my bills for a little while longer.

    I remember one day I was hanging out with my Grandpa... and he was at that point in where he couldn’t recognize or remember who his family was but he still felt comfortable around us. Anyways, I remember my aunt walked by and he tapped me in the shoulder and said “That is your aunt Cielo, my daughter! Don’t forget that! :)” and I was really young and giggled and told him “You don’t forget that Mon!”
    Now that I’m older, when the memory flashes through my head I feel like it was more like a plead for help to help him not forget... but in a sad way. I’m just so glad I was one of the very few grandchildren who didn’t find him annoying when he told his great stories, he was very happy when I would Retell them to him during the mornings and say “ah! Yes! I remember that!” Sadly he passed away a couple years ago but I’m so greatful my very young self was so passionate to bond with my grandfather even tho I only saw him 2 weeks per year. :)

    I like how simple and true the story is. A beautiful depiction of someone trying to live his life despite his condition, and actually failing - and there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. You can't always win your battles but you can let other people be there for you when the world is just too much. The key is to know where to draw the line.

      I think it is the worst desease ever. Doesn't matter how ill you are you still have a life to look back to, have people you love and who love you. But with Alzheimer you die without knowing what was before you die, you can't recognize your family. My aunt had it and it was such a pain talking to her normally one day and the other day I was a stranger to her. As if nothing we ever done together mattered.
      I could never imagine how much it would hurt if my husband would forget about me... All the lovely memories don't mean anything anymore.

    My father is currently dealing with dementia. It breaks my heart every day. He wants to be able to do the things he normally does, but it’s easy some days for him to become lost and confused. I’ve never been close to him but now I feel like I am losing the opportunity to know him and have him know me in return. Treasure your loved ones. Even if you don’t always get along or see eye to eye. There may come a day when you’ll wish you’d not been so stubborn.

    I've been having a lot of trouble with my grandma, she's had Alzheimer for almost a year now. I've been struggling how to deal with it. It's like I've never known the person she was before she was diagnosed with it... I don't remember, but I know she isn't herself. She's fighting against it, she really is. She's a strong, prideful woman. But I'm scared, that one day she'll lose the battle, and she'll be gone for good...
    This short master piece, helped me understand it a little bit better. I'm 16 after all, I don't know much. But I'll love my grandmother like I always have. Unconditionally.

      My grandmother has had Alzheimer for more than thirteen years, I believe... she doesn't recognize anyone but her husband. She can't talk, can't dress, can't eat, can't even understand that she's hungry - without the help of my grandfather. It's very difficult, especially emotionally... Some years ago she got lost when my grandfather was walking with her and we couldn't find her for about two weeks. And then we found out that she got on a train leaving for another city! It was a miracle that we managed to find her and return home...

Sometime he thought all persons acting in the television are living in our home, try to drag them into the room, by touching the screen many times. That was so painful for us, me and my family.

    Beautiful story and visuals with an important meaning: it seems he's trying to keep his impending dementia or Alzheimer's at bay by using note reminders in his daily life.
    I used to help care for and create activities for dementia & Alzheimer's residents at a nursing home. There really is a certain way to approach them and their situation. At times you really can see them trying to hold on to and maintain the amount of mental stability and memory they have left. It's sad to watch them losing it and the forlorn, frustrated faces and behavior when they realize they cannot remember something. And I've come to notice that people dealing with Alzheimer's will do quite well remembering things when they are at one of the two extremes: very happy or very mad.
    I feel badly for people who used to take care of families and hold down jobs cannot look after themselves, anymore. I learned that a person who keeps themselves mentally stimulated (reading, traveling, gardening, socializing, playing games, etc; anything positive and mentally stimulating) can hold off longer the onset of dementia and Alzheimer's later in life.
    Be patient with people dealing with this. At times they don't even realize this is happening. 💗💗

It causes the person to progressively forget more and more things, starting with recent events, appointments, the time of day and so on, but eventually leading to forgetting key life events, the names and faces of people you love, even your own identity. It also manifests in more and more frequent moments of dementia (disconnecting with reality). Although medication can sometimes delay symptom progression, there is no known cure for this disease.

      @Anna333 On the contrary. If you maintain your presence with them, even just by calling, you will strengthen that bond. My mom recently died from alzheimers. I have sisters who live out of state and could not visit more than once or twice a year. They called her frequently, one every day and one at least twice a week, and it maintained their tie with her and helped frame her day. Alzheimers people need more contact, not less.

      Father in heaven, I come to you as a child who wants to know you. I confess of any sins I have committed, even from my family's sins including my mother. Jesus please have your hand in my life, and my mother's life. Forgive me of sin and wash my clean. please may my mother receive your healing hand. Jesus you said if I come to you, you will never turn me away. May this promise be kept, be my good shepherd,please be my mother's shepherd. In your mighty name I pray, amen.

La personne vie au quotidien et assume le fait qu'elle a un certain age, elle a ses habitudes mais son quotidien est confus, perturbe de trous (de décolorations de son environnement), elle peu oublier certaines personnes, choses ou moments. ca peux aller loin, jusqu’à oublier qui est la personne avec qui tu t'es marie, et lui demander ce quelle fait chez toi. Le pire dans tous ca c'est le debut de maladie, le malade est conscient de la situation et se rend compte que quelque chose ne tourne pas rond, mais est totalement impuissante contre ceci...

    This video made me remember what I lived with my paternal grandmother and my dad.
    Both lost their memory, and it is true that the family members who day by day take care them; suffer .
    But, the one who suffers the most is the patient himself, who will enjoy only small moments of lucidity and that these will become totally frustrating due to the feeling of incapacity and loss, which the patient himself will experience.
    So, I learned that when this moment of lucidity arrived, no matter what I was doing, that brief and fleeting moment belonged to them, because in very short moments they would vanish.
    I also learned not to fight and not to argue, because as crazy as his request was, they would forget it in a very short time, and his peace and mine peace were worth more than his request.
    My grandmother was born in 1913 and lived EVERYTHING!!! The 1st and 2nd world war, the great depression, the wars in Vietnam and Korea, ... and still she was a wonderful and extraordinary woman despite being an orphan of father and mother.
    My father was born in 1940 and was raised as a gentleman, he was gentle, kind, respectful and very considerate. He was always there for those who had needs, equally for her 6 children and 8 grandchildren. Of which I am the oldest and my daughter the last granddaughter.
    So, I was privileged to suffer his illnesses at his side,...
    ... because BOTH of them have made me a reasonable and slowed man of 50 years, aware of what really is important.
    Take care of your old people and enjoy your lucid times together!

    This was an excellent depiction of what these poor people suffer and how frustrating it is for them who have been independant their whole lives to now have become dependant on others. And the white, wiping away everything was a perfect illustration. My Dad and my Husbands Mom died from this condition. It's very sad. A very good friend just died a few days ago. A wonderful woman dedicated to serving God and ministering to others of all ages. She's beloved! She was saying just a short time ago that she didn't want to live to a point where she didn't know people's names any more. She still knew who we were at the time she died. Our Lord answered her prayer and brought her home before that point. But these last two years have been so hard. Now she is home with the Lord and well again, young and well. I Praise and thank God! I miss her though very much, but she's no longer suffering. Praise the Lord! Thank you for this wonderful film. It should be shown to families who have a family members suffering from dementia or alzheimers. It will help them to understand. One thing they did not depict was, they often see hallucinations. How frightening. My mother in law would sit and tell me, " I know that there is no one there, but I see the little girl embroidering in the chair there, as clear as you are to me now." At least she understood they weren't real, but so many don't and is it very frieghtening. I pray my husband and I will not suffer such a fate. Stay away from deorderants with aluminium, it causes this disease. Also, certain ingredients in toothpastes. You can by it without. I think it is fluoride! That's why so many people are getting this disease!

    This is touching. I'm blessed that no one in my family has problems with this, and I hope they never do. I feel sorry for the people who have Alzheimer good luck to them.

    Okay, cette histoire me touche énormément, ma grand-mère était atteinte de cette maladie, et cette animation représente parfaitement ce qu’elle a vécu. Les larmes coulent sur mes joues, merci de sensibiliser les gens ainsi. Les dessins sont très beaux, et l’effet aquarelle utilisée quand il a comme des crises, et qu’il oublie est parfaitement utilisée. Merci et bravo

    my grandmother was diagnosed with alzheimer when she was 55, she died in her early 80s, I can't imagine the fear and anxiety she must have felt once everything became a fog.I appreciated your confrontation of this anxiety, this horrific disease. This animation brought me to tears; so tragic, so beautiful so unexpected. thank you!
