My grandmother passed after a long battle with Alzheimer's in 2006. It was truly one of the saddest things to watch.
It was really hard during the early stages as no one in the family really knew what to do. My grandfather seemed to be in denial for a long time. It took an intervention by various family members to finally get her the proper care. Eventually my grandfather was able to take care of her, but it wasn't with out continued hardships.
When she passed I was sad, but also relieved that she no longer had to suffer. It really scares me to think about if myself or any other family members will also develop the disease.
