It's been about 12 years since I filmed this. I have 14 and 12 year old daughters now and my youngest just found and watched this. Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for watching, and for your comments. I hope some of you dealing with this in real life have been able to find some value or camaraderie in it. 💪❤
Thank you for showing that Alzheimer's even hits those younger and young families. My wife was diagnosed at age 51 and it changes all dynamics of family life.
I saw a video the other day where the wife was 31, pregnant with her first baby, and newly diagnosed. I read later that she had the baby, and her parents and husband are raising it. You probably guessed that she wasn’t able to raise it because she was too bad by the time the baby was born. Actually, she was around for a short while, but died by the time her little girl was 15 months old.
Ken could I please ask how your wife is ? I am the same age as she was and have just been diagnosed ... would really appreciate some information you can contact me on mandyk16@hotmail.com if you can
What a sad story. What beautiful music. Dementia (Alzheimer's) is a cruel disease for all involved. Caregivers need all the help we can get as we can get physically, emotionally, and mentally ill from the pure stress of it. Thank you for this video! May we find a cure soon!
I have been diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia at age 47. I suffered for many years before the diagnosis. There need to be more awareness for when this or any of the dementias hit when your younger. Thank-you for making this.
Hi! I really want to thank you for the beutiful movie. I am living in tha shadow of the disease. My mother is 57 years old and have the diagnose Alzheimer disease since two years. It is so painful to see how the disease destroy. The song is so beutiful. It help me to cope this most terrible situation. Take care!
I saved this film, but couldn't bring myself to watch it till now. Mom is in her 7th year of living with Alzheimer's. And though she's now 81 years old, I know well that Alzheimer's can strike ANYONE, at any age. It's a horrible, horrible disease. But I know my Mom is still "in there", somewhere in that mental tangle that is Alzheimer's. Thanks to the film makers and actors for this.
Thanks for the comment. The Song was written and performed by the Actress in the film. I will ask her if she has or would like to have a full version of that song available to the public.
Gut wrenching to watch a loved one slowly be mentally taken and the body is still here. I hope and pray noone will have to ever watch someone pass from this
Hey. Thanks for the comments. This was over 5 years ago, now. I used a Panasonic HVX200 with a Brevis (from Cinevate) 35mm adapter. I only had one lens at the time, and that is what I used. a 50mm f1.2 (if memory serves) There are much better options these days, though :) That was before the wide availability of large sensor cameras at low prices. Take care.
Dementia is my family illness My mum lived with it for years Sometimes she cant remember me But it s ok Because I remember her My brother lived with it too He s 50 and he battling well It s start effecting me.. But i have to accept it and battling with it It s illness Definitely not our faults Love and kind Supporting and understanding Of family and love ones really help Hopefully society and community soon accept it and give a hand to help and support Instead of bad judgements and accusing Thank you for a great movie 👏👏👏❤️
I’ve been a live in caretaker since 2019, but my grandma also passed with dementia a couple years ago, so I’ve been on both sides of the fence witnessing it from a family perspective & non family caretaker perspective. This guy did a great job of portraying a day of dementia. They die before they’re dead & that’s the hardest part for the human mind to cope with. You have random moments or days where they seem to light up, but then they don’t even understand how they’re feeling when they do & it’s doesn’t sustain itself.
I visited my late aunt in a nursing home. She was fine mentally but physically in bad shape. Unfortunately, the only room they had for her initially was on the secure Elzheimers floor. She hated it. I could not believe it when I visited. Elderly people strapped into wheelchairs just staring at the walls. I do not want to end my days like that!
One day my son MJ visited his grandmother who has Alzheimer's. Hoping that she would remember him since he was her first grandchild thus her favorite, he asked his "grandma, do you know me" she looked at him intently and said "of course! you are my grandson MJ's best friend"...all he could do was gave her a hug ...sad
My mother had Alzheimers for 2 years before she died. When she was diagnosed, her doctor suggested a book for the family to read that was extremely helpful to understand how to relate to her and this disease. If anyone is interested it's "The 36 Hour Day" by Nancy Mace. Great short film btw.
Thanks everyone for your kind words. About the song... Tori has since released her first CD and the song in this short film is on it. It is called, "Waltzing". It is available several places if you google around for the title of the album, "Mayview Road". Even available to listen online for free from one website (which I cannot remember at the moment... sorry) I have added links to the album with the song for itunes and amazon in the video description above. Take care.
My husband is mid stage. We have been married for 37 years. He is 70. This film is so real to me. Her emotional landscape is very much like mine as my beloved husband's caregiver. Beautiful video.
Thank you for posting. The cruel harsh reality of being this young is you will not get any help. My brother in law was diagnosed 10 years ago. A month ago he took a turn for the worst. He is 51 and in the final stages. He does not know his wife or daughter. He is a danger to himself now. My sister goes to work all week wondering if he will wander off or set the house on fire. We have all searched for an organization that will either help or take him. We have been turned down by everyone because of his age. I guess it's just not serious unless your 65 or older.
I am so so sorry your family is being forced to endure such hardship and inequality!!!! This is what professionals - doctors, lawyers, politicians, etc. should be busting their asses to prevent or address, in my opinion! Where are the advocates your family needs and deserves?! 💔😣😠❤️

I visited my grandpa at the asylum today, he has alzheimer. He hasn't seen my dad for 6 years. He began crying when we wanted to go, he said that he wants to go home so he can always see us. He was still crying when we went while looking at us. I just can't. it broke my heart. i want to stay with him forever. i don't want him to die in an asylum.
although not everyone can take care of the afflicted at home, it, putting them in a care facility is the worst. A nurse told us they will either die or degenerate very quickly. . they need familiar surroundings. But thats life. we the caregivers need a life too...I dont have much of one...my sisters and I help look after my mother who has has alzheimers. Its been almost 20 years. Its hell...when the doctor told us, it could last from 12-20 years I couldnt believe it!
jessie james my nana has had Alzheimer's for 19 years now, diagnosed when I was 2, and it's such a terrible disease. We have her in a care facility and the nurses are just amazing to her. My grandfather goes up and visits her every other day. She still eats exceptionally well, babbles all the time, and is healthy.
I just finished listening to Everywhere at the End of Time, a six album masterpiece that creates music and ambient soundscapes of the progression of dementia. Alzheimers is the most terrifying thing on earth if it progresses anything like that project did. The paintings that went with each of the six albums are just as unsettling and sad. My ex mother in law died of this disease. Nothing is more frightening than losing all your memories and the person you used to be.
Worked at a memory care facility for 5 years. All residents were in different stages of Alzheimer's disease or dealing with demetia. It's an awful disease...it pained me to see the affects it took on people and scared the hell out of me of hoping I never get it or my anyone in my family 😑
I got tested at 55. I was in the first stage of Dementia. My psychologist said he had never had someone just walk in his door and ask for the tests. He wrote a 6 page report. My husband came with me because I asked him to. He DID NOT read the report. I am now in mid stage of Dementia. My husband will not do anything to learn about it. he told me after the analysis at 55 if I would just slow down I would be ok. I lose my keys, cell phone, I try to retrace everything to find items I just laid down somewhere. Its very hard living a life your husband does not believe you have. I am so grateful to my circle of Dr's that aid and assist me. i was not muslim and I visited a Mosque. Even they have sisters of the Mosque to call me. One girl says I am her American Mom. Again so blessed that strangers took me in and show love and understanding for me.
I hope your doing good. I'm sorry your husband had taken the "head in the sand" approach. That doesn't help anyone and he is losing precious time!!! PLEASE TELL HIM HE'S LOSING TIME ... I really hope he has come around.. God bless you ❣
How are you at the moment Marie, Ive just been diagnosed at 51 and would love to talk to someone going through it you can contact me on mandyk16@hotmail.com
Thank you everyone for your kindness. Just lost my doctor after 18 years. He is going into wound care. He was tired of having to be living by a clock. The good part we can now be friends😊 now I have to train a new doctor. Most just want to give you the newest pill or treatment. Well they hit a wall they did not see coming. People with medical backgrounds (or I do) don't like having someone telling you to do this because he says so. I don't take that well. In fact neurologist and I had quite go round. If you don't stand up for yourself people will make you take the new pill or a new treatment.
How are you doing now? I hope your husband has come around and stopped living in denial about your dementia, or that you found another caregiver. Please check in.
There are more and more younger people getting early onset dementia. There has to be an environmental cause to this, something we aren’t being told. We get told Oh it’s just because we record and treat cases better and we are more aware now but far more younger people are being diagnosed than ever were before. WHY?? Governments aren’t telling us everything. Something is in the environment, the foods, the water, there has to be a reason for this.
My grandma died last year and I grew up with her as a kid and when I saw her last she didn't know I was her grandson. It was sad. Both my grand parents had Alzheimer's. I have seen it from beginning to end with them and it sucks.
At first I thought the title was a mistake, then I realized people are getting diagnosed with Alzheiemer's Dementia now as young at 35! So, yeah, this is a major problem and it is terryfying!! The ignorance is that this is an old person's disease when in fact it is not, young people develop this every single day, doctors have to be better educated in early onset AD!
This is spectacular! Beautifully written, acted etc. Priceless ! And I too would buy the song. Any chance it could be put up on itunes? Thank you for this gem, kudos to all involved in this project. I have tears in my eyes as I write.
my mom was diagnosed with early onset dementia. I recently made a video for young caregivers going through a difficult time. If anyone is in need please know you are not alone. Feel free to contact me if you need anything.
Really beautifully shot and acted. Simple yet touching. A few questions: what camera did you use to shoot this film, and did you use any lens independent of the camera?
I sure hope the good Lord has a special plan in the next world for all these poor people who go through Hell on earth, while the rest of us were able to look on in agony.
I don't know who Springhill care group is :) But, this is all there is. It is a short film made about 6 or 7 years ago. It was for an online short film competition.
My bestest friend in the whole world just told me she has it. We are 59. We met when we were 12 and never looked back. How am I gonna deal with this? I am so afraid..🥹😭 God bless Linda..
It’s a terribly sad video and she loves her husband so dearly, But I can’t help but think she must be making him feel terribly sad because she openly is crying when he’s asking her questions.
According to the World Health Organization, there are approximately 30,000 known diseases worldwide. Life is like a game of poker, the cards you get are the cards you get. My plan for myself is when the shit hits the fan I'm going to take some pills, open a vein and go to sleep. I wouldn't put myself or my family through that. TheReaper!
Normal is just a cycle on the washer machine ~ Whoopi Goldberg. I love this quote! My mother has Alzheimer's disease; I adopted this quote as the disease progressed. Check out the following video: MamaIsStillHere!
Because it is real perhaps? Because people need us to learn to face voluntarily, what they are forced to face? When great sadness is shared, loneliness is less a part of the pain.
+MelonHoly AD can develop in young individuals as well, though extremely improbable there has been reported cases of AD in persons as young as 30 years old. It is known as "Early-Onset Alzheimer". Familiar Alzheimer can also cause early Alzheimer due to a dominant autosomal inheritance associated with defective genes that codify certain proteins involved in b-amyloid production and protection against b-amyloid plaques

That's tough. After 4 years since your comment, how are things going for you? 💪
Beautiful video! My husband passed away in October of this horrible disease we were married for 28 1/2 years. This film is so real to me.

My best friend ever died of Alzheimers and this disease is hideous! It affects not only the person suffering from it, but family members as well!
Tack alla för era vänliga ord
I commented on this 5 years ago and I comment again now. EXCELLENT.

Thanks all filmmakers. It is great.
The acting is amazing! Very well done and powerful.
Heartbreaking. Awesome actors, thank you!!
Dementia is my family illness
My mum lived with it for years

There's no need for that! Strapped to chairs! They could treat them whole lot better
That song is just so beautiful
Very good film. Very realistic, music was lovely.🤟✌🧡

Thank you so much for this video!
This is very touching. Amazing for a $25 budget especially.

God bless Linda..
It’s a terribly sad video and she loves her husband so dearly, But I can’t help but think she must be making him feel terribly sad because she openly is crying when he’s asking her questions.
Wyjątkowe i piękne ♥️
Heart breaking to say the least.
Are these actors? It is a movie quality video. Well done tho.
Does anyone know who made the 70s documentary about a young mans father who slowly deteriorated?. It took place in the north rural u.s.a
What a wonderful story. I posted it to my Twitter page @Alzheimers2020 Faces of Alzheimer's Everyone is welcome. God Bless you all.

What is this a movie or the real thing
Hey, there. It is a fictional short film. Not true other than loosely based on the idea of very early onset Alzheimer's disease 👍
These two look so young to have this problem.
Young people have alzheimer's too
