explores impact of Alzheimer’s disease on caregivers

one of the most mysterious and frustrating aspects of

up" and have periods of great lucidity during which
they seem to return to their former selves. During these
times, they may converse with great wit and humor or
have serious discussions and generally behave as if
they have no illness, only to lapse back into their
dementia as suddenly as they awakened.
