That sucks, man. My grandma had Dementia/Alzheimers as well that was aggravated by her diabetes and died of a myriad of conditions all taking their toll on her. For the year or so before her death it got so bad that I couldn't really bear talking to her much even though she was staying with us for a lot of that time.

It was really bad, whether there is a heaven hell or nothing. RIP

It's probably terrifying for the victim and it has a hugely negative effect on the people they love who have to care for a family member that no longer recognizes them or even knows how to do daily tasks necessary for survival. The worst thing is that people with alzheimers often have many other afflictions that complicate their care and living conditions.

In her sleep maybe but not with a battle with Alzheimer's. A lot of people think its just forgetfulness but this disease is UGLY.
You have my best wishes OP. I just lost my grandmother last Christmas to Alzheimer's. She had it 4+ years and after a while we were just hoping she'd die. It's one of the most messed up conditions you can see a human being in. That was a bad Christmas man grandma died, granddads Parkinson's landed him in a nursing home, and my dad got cancer.
It is what it is though. Death is rough but we all have to make room for new life so that they too can enjoy the beautiful experience

I would want to be permanently sedated if i ever had Alzheimer's, and then euthanized if my health got bad.
