A Most Sinister Villain

Alzheimer’s is a most sinister villain. It is one that cannot be pursued and apprehended. It cannot be incarcerated or brought to justice. No correction nor reformation is possible. Retribution and satisfaction are elusive to the victim and the weary family. If it was a man, I would challenge it to a duel.

But God did give me a brain, with which I...
