Memories fade but love remains——Taiwan's seniors suffer from dementia.
Can you imagine that the person you spend your whole life with suddenly forgets who you are one day?
In the begging I just found he can't take his medicine properly.
Doctor tell us he is in the early period of "dementia".
My husband change a lot. Easily to get angry and violent.
It's became so dangerous to take care of him even just walking on the street.
One day, he told me he can not see anything.
He sit on the floor and start crying loudly without tears.
"Why are you crying? Are you afraid of being abandoned by me?"
He just nod his head.
"Don't worry. I will stay by your side to the end of your live."
We sat on the stairs, hugging each other and crying together.
After 12 years he eventually left the world, but there are still many families like me struggle on this way.
I hope this story can help people like me and understand more about "dementia" .
