After almost 60 years of marriage
Jack and Eileen Davis have a challenge
They are at war
Alzheimers is the only disease that
Attacks the body and soul. The only
Outcome is death.
A slow unmerciful demise
Every day the loss is felt.
Good Bye, Good Bye, Good Bye
Seventy-seven years is a long life to live
Sorrowfully now, her mind is a sieve
now she utters words, but doesn't really talk
-
My wife. I miss her so much
Yet she is still here, but only to touch
Sadly, tears run down my cheek.
Never is it sympathy that I seek.
-
Oh, God, I want her back with me.
It is the entire feeling, so, so lonely.
Good bye, good bye, good bye
Leave me alone, I just want to cry
Our program has one goal, A Cure
A healthy brain weighs 3 pounds. A brain infected with
Alzheimer's weighs 2 pounds, 1/3rd of the brain
Mass has disappeared. We will look for the difference
Between the two brains chemical makeup. We will also look for the portion of the
Brain that works with music and lyrics. How does this area seem
A slow unmerciful demise
To defend itself against the Alzheimer's onslaught.
