“You told me that she has early onset Alzheimer’s.” The doctor looked between me, my brother, and father to confirm that was in fact true. “Yeah. She’s been diagnosed for a few years now. I always knew it was something because even before she got like this, she was always forgetful and a whole host of other shit.” He looked down at the beeper that sounded on his hip, and he silenced it. “We’ve run every test, which is why I didn’t want to discharge her once she was awake. I can confidently say that your wife and mother doesn’t have Alzheimer’s.”
