An excerpt from the novel: Still Alice, written by Lisa Genova.
Upon reading this, I felt a sense of guilt of how we tend to avoid how people with certain diseases feel. The best information is to gain from those who are or have actually experienced a disease. How someone can spend their life time being educated, respected and have a high status among a community and then have their world come apart due to a illness. Learn from those who can tell us.
I would definitely recommend this novel to anyone who would be interested in a internal perspective of someone with Alzheimer's. It has been voted as New York Times best sellers, amongst many other.
