Last Night- Something New

Dad came into my office last night and said "Something new. I told your mother I was going to go and take my evening pills."

Conversation:

Dad: I'm going to go take my evening pills."

Mom: Pills? What pills?

Dad: My evening pills. Medicine.

Mom: You take pills?

Dad: Yes, I have for years.

Mom: Oh. Okay. I guess I forgot.

That sounds familiar. Seeing it in writing makes it sound endearing and amusing, but it never is in the moment, huh?

Wow,
Those "pills" have been her world for years... the Alzhiemers progression is an interestingly odd thing... you nevre know what will happen...
