Alzheimer's disease
fiction
edward w pritchard
There are none of the minor actors in Shakespeare or other playwrights except Death who waits backstage clear till act five to give his few lines on the death of Kings. In real life when Death sits at the bedside of the poor soul with Alzheimer's disease does Death wait and wait months and years indifferently to finish his lines until after a short eternity Death mumbles his final denouement. Only then does the audience shuffle off, heads hung down, with confused emotions.
