One of my Aunts is fast approaching 90. For the last 6 or 7 years she's been "slipping" a bit, confusing who people are, where she is, when she is, all that stuff.

I was talking to her today and she asked where I lived. I told her and she told me where she thought she was still living, a place she lived 40 to 50 years ago, and then told me I should come visit her, meaning the old place, sometime.

It's so bizarre to watch this crumbling of the mind. I've seen it in others, family and not, but it's just weird. It really has me wondering just how our brains function. Or, how they don't function.
