7:14 pm
skills, together with other intellectual skills, to decline during the course of alzheimer's disease. >> oh, i hit that so hard. >> ultimately, what happens is that the patients no longer have the cognitive capacity to understand what is being spoken to them. as things get worse, they start to forget the names of family members. they become confused about family and social relationships. as things really deteriorate, language function can become profoundly impaired. the patients have difficulty expressing themselves. on occasion patients, when they progress, develop hallucinations or delusions, and unfortunately glen is entering a stage where his cognition is getting worse. how is it possible that he could be so able in his musical skills? >> in glen's case, he still has such a developed music area in his brain that he's able to pull

from alzheimer's. we were like this. so i've seen it in every stage. when that first day when suddenly somebody looks at something and goes, you know, what's this? and it's a lock and they don't -- you know, and then to where it snows overnight and how did that get here? what is that? >> my father passed away when he was 70. he was young. he was just 70 years old. the part of the brain that was affected at first was, you know, this is a white cup, but he couldn't say it's a white cup. he would say maybe it's a black cup or he couldn't get it out. and it really frustrated him. >> my mom didn't -- it didn't happen that way with her. but we did watch her go

7:37 pm
frustrating for me because i try to help him. but there's just something in his mind that i'm not doing right and he can't do it and he gets frustrated. and then he gets angry. >> i'm telling you, man -- >> you just had a knife in your mouth on the bus a few minutes ago. >> i did not! >> yes, you did. >> don't blame no nothing! if i did, i would have had it done by now. >> i just can't pull it out and it's driving me nuts! >> you -- you don't know understand. you can see it, can you? >> yes. >> look! i know where it is. >> i know. >> he went upstairs and my mom went upstairs with him and he wouldn't let it go. all of a sudden, he just dropped it. and then he came back downstairs a couple minutes later and he goes, when did you get here? hi, honey. how are you?

trust me, you can walk over here. just keep coming, you know? every day is a challenge for me. i fight depression and it's -- it's just, you know, really intensely sad to see somebody you love struggle. because generally he clings to me like i'm his anchor for who am i, where am i? i'm his safety blanket that he wants me around all the time. okay, sweetheart, i promise we'll get -- we'll find them all. we'll get them back on the bed where you left them. >> what? >> they're right there. they're right next to the bed. now, if you go on all the websites about alzheimer's, this is very typical. they become paranoid and they think people are stealing from them.
