2. At a clinic in Waterloo, Ontario, an elderly woman sat on the edge of a waiting room chair singing “My Heart Will Go On.” With little effort, she was able to nd her sweet voice exploding into every corner of the clinic.
There was a lot of shifting in ats, but mainly they awkwardly avoid their eyes and tried to pretend there was nothing out of the ordinary going on. I was there with my father, who was getting a routine blood test, when the woman arrived. She ttled into the at directly across from my Dad. She smiled at him, and he smiled back.
My Dad had been living with Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默症) for veral years, When he was healthy, he considered it wholly bad mannered to bring too much attention to onelf. Since Alzheimer’s has a tendency to destroy a person’s patience, Dad had experienced a few challenging encounters in the past.
Her singing began gently. I glanced over at Dad. His smile was gone, and he was stari
ng right at her. She was staring back. I couldn’t read his expression, but it emed to be something like confusion. I watched for any sign of a coming angry outburst. Instead, his face softened, and the tension ead in his brow.
People say that Alzheimer’s is a thief, and that it steals your loved ones slowly, day by day. But certain experiences with my Dad have allowed me to e a side of him that I never knew existed. I will hold on to tho moments when he told me tender stories about when he was a child, as if he knew that he didn’t have much time left to show me who he really was. In an unexpected way, that’s what happened for me that day in the clinic. Alzheimer’s sometimes emed to be peeling back the onion of my Dad’s true lf.
