It made me cry... I have worked in LTC for many years... I have seen much... I have done much...but, sadly, never enough.... Alzheimer's is devastating, debilitating and heartbreaking to all who are touched by it...family, friends and caregivers... This movie hit close to me in more ways than one... I work with it everyday and lost my mother to dementia and Influenza A. She did know us, her kids, but did lose track of time, over time... I would see glimpses of that strong, independent woman that crossed an ocean to be with a man she loved and wanting a better life for her children. She worked very hard, too hard, but still saw her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren do well, be happy and miss her awful... And I am away from her as we all are...
