42.

Dementia robs people of clear-thinking heads,
leaving shells of the person and violence instead.
Care-givers continue to love whom they knew,
but when is enough that it's time to be through?
And does mourning begin for the loved one so dear,
when the relationship changes into one to be feared?
The answers aren't clear when these questions arise
and God help us all when we're living those lives.
