[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1566308149956","data":"He remembers everything he did in his days, every struggle he went through, every hardship his family took on, every meal he prepared at his canteen, every small request made by others, every path he took and every path he helped his people to take. It\u2019s an irony because now he can\u2019t remember where he kept the scooter keys.<\/p>\u2018Why are you like this?\u2019 his wife keeps questioning him every time he asks her something. \u2018I told you five minutes back about the same thing!\u2019 she screams at him in frustration.\nHe grunts and replies, knowing well that would be ending more in trouble \u2018Yes, I forgot. That\u2019s why I am asking you again!\u2019\nHis wife shouts more at him, at how difficult he is being, at how infuriating he is becoming for her, at how she can\u2019t deal with something that is not even under his control. <\/p>He listens to all of it quietly, questioning himself, \u2018Why am I like this?\u2019 <\/p>Old age has caught up with him in a way he did not ever desire it to. The doctors have recognized it as early stages of Alzheimer. There is no escape from it for him.<\/p>He used to go out and bury himself with numerous works per day and now he cannot be trusted to go out alone because he keeps forgetting where to go and the purpose of going out.\nEarlier, he used to take care of all the stuff to be bought, getting them himself, but now when he is sent to bring one thing, he forgets and brings something completely unnecessary, not even recalling the list in his pocket.\nHe does not remember where he kept the new set of medicines or even remember when he went to the hospital last time and what they said, he mixes up names and calls one granddaughter by the other one\u2019s name.<\/p>Little by little he cannot recall words, forgetting names, forgetting how to see time, forgetting his way, repeating questions, repeating stories, repeating conversations.\nAnd when people keep asking him again and again, look at him with pity in their eyes, he can\u2019t help but feel so stupid for not being able to remember, a basic human nature.<\/p>He did not choose this. He does not want this. At the same time he is not able to escape it, lost and vulnerable in this deep pit where no one can reach him. He tries to get out, struggles and keeps falling back in it, breaking him bit by bit.\nAfter all the things he forgets, he cannot forget this one question that he keeps asking himself again and again, \u2018Why am I like this?\u2019\nAnd slowly, instead of just the age, his demons are taking his life from him too.\n <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1566308149957","data":"5d5bf8c4ef062"}]
