"My mother never really knew she was suffering from dementia. Even though she received the words directly from her doctor.
I started thinking of her as deeply forgetful and that helped me stop worry so much about all kinds of things I couldn't control.
As for me? I really didn't care whether she knew or didn't know. We were too busy trying to live our lives to worry about it."
