""If you continue to think of who you were right up until the time you got Alzheimer's, you will experience frustration, decline, failure, a lesser self. Not good company. I sometimes can't complete a thought. I could feel bad about myself. If I have to measure up to what I was before I became this, I can't. But if you let that go, then you are still becoming something. And it's not necessarily a diminution of yourself. You must realize, it ain't over." — Geri Taylor, 72
