What does Alzheimer's disease look like?
What kind of world is hidden in the mind of Alzheimer's disease?
When I was in elementary school, my grandmother had Alzheimer's. She always forgot people and things in the present and was immersed in the past.
At that time, I never understood why I had been together for so long, yet I could still forget it?
Growing up, I understood that it was a disease, officially called Alzheimer's disease.
When I saw Huang Bo formed a team of such people and opened "Unforgettable Restaurant", I saw a group of old people just like my grandmother, and I suddenly wondered, what kind of brain do people with Alzheimer's have in their brains? world.
It was not until I watched the movie "Father Trapped in Time" a few days ago that I had a deeper understanding of my grandmother's illness at that time, and I became more and more regretful. Why didn't I have any patience at that time?
"My leaves are dying."
Anthony, who has Alzheimer's disease, sighed while looking at the green leaves outside the window.
Anthony has two children. The youngest daughter died for some reason, leaving only the eldest daughter Anne. The eldest daughter Anne met a new love and needed to move from London to Paris to live with her lover, so for the sick father, only Two options: either send it to a nursing home, or hire a carer to live with the father.
The film is like watching a suspense film in the process of watching, and each section seems to be unconnected.
But that's where the film shines, because the world is seen from the point of view of an ailing Anthony.
Anthony did not forget his deceased little daughter, and from time to time he asked where the little daughter was now, and he hadn't seen each other for a long time.
Anthony also often misremembers the words of the eldest daughter and the younger daughter, and remembers the eldest daughter's address to his "little dad" as the younger daughter.
Anthony often sees his eldest daughter's husband berating him for no apparent reason, asking himself how long he will drag his eldest daughter down.
Even Anthony often forgets the appearance of his daughter Annie...
Anthony lives in fear all the time. In his world, there are often inexplicable people who are unfriendly to him and full of threats. Things in the house often change back and forth, looking at the people below through the window, I always feel like I'm watching myself...
This is Alzheimer's disease. Just like my grandma at that time, she always shouted that she didn't know my family, she wanted to go home by herself, she didn't know us, not even her own daughter, she wanted to find her daughter, we "abused" her, she wanted to find someone, and she wanted to escape. Strangers and places...
How did I do it then? I followed my grandma, recorded what she said, and told my mother that my grandma was confused again. Mom's expression at that time, thinking about it now, although she didn't show it, she must be very, very sad! It's so sad to love your mother and not know yourself.
In "Father Trapped in Time", Anthony has been looking for his watch. Every time he forgot where he put it, when he saw someone else's watch, he always suspected that he had stolen his own.
He said that without a watch, he could not tell the time.
This old man, where did his own time stop?
Is it a happy moment? Or sad moments? I prefer the former.
After watching the movie, I can tell that Anthony has experienced three kinds of life in total: the first is living with his daughter Annie, the second is the help of nurses, and the third is a nursing home.
The daughter sent her father to a nursing home for love and for her father to be taken care of at all times.
A little sad, no matter from which point of view, it seems that it is not a particularly good choice.
After Anthony woke up, looking at the small room and looking outside through the small window, he suddenly remembered his mother, he burst into tears, like a child who was extremely insecure and wanted to find his mother, buried his head and cried.
Parents try their best to give their children better care, especially for sick children or children who are born with some disabilities.
When parents are old, do they receive the same patient and gentle care of their children?
I saw a video two days ago. My father cleaned the door in the snow at 10 o'clock in the evening, just so that the children who came back in the early morning could park the car.
Looking at the parents whose temples are gradually turning white, I think it's not too late, cherish the time in front of them.
