| Re: "The Notebook"
I read the book. I don't want to see the movie - they say the ending has been changed which kind of spoils the whole thing.
The book was very moving, sad and painful .. but I aso felt that - in comparison to my Mom - the AD patient in the book was unusually lucid at times. Mom does not really have breakthroughs where she knows everything. She 'seems ' normal for a while, but isn't really.
So I asked myself if the author really went through all this, or is it fiction.
Right now I feel overexposed to everything to do with AD, (like, I know more about it than I ever wanted to!) and I try to avoid the subject except when I read this Board - I feel I can't forget my old friends just because I got my freedom ...
Love,
Martha
