I remember her just looking miserable and saying, "I used to be able to do this, why is it so hard now?" What do you even say to that? I didn't know for sure that she had Alzheimer's, and even if I did, it wasn't my place to try to explain it to her.

As for memory, there's a point where it mostly doesn't need to matter, but letting go is difficult for people.
