People think that it is just forgetting who people are or where they are if they have not experienced it firsthand. It is so much more than that. They lose their knowledge of food, walking, or talking. My grandfather could not say he was in pain. His vocabulary had diminished to just grunts or sounds but no actual words. I will never forget what this disease did to him. This is why we need to find a cure. This is why I walk.
