Een man denkt dat zijn vrouw hem bedriegt. De denkbeeldige vriendschappen van een vrouw jagen haar man angst aan. Een moeder kwelt haar zoon met haar jeugdtrauma’s. Waarom is de zorg voor een familielid met dementie zo moeilijk? Waarom bezwijken zorgverleners voor gedrag – ruzie maken, aan dringen, verwijten persoonlijk opvatten – waarvan ze weten dat het contra productief is?

Around the time that Lionel Messi was slotting home his first goal in the 2022 World Cup final, my mother was taking her last breath. The news reached me at half-time. The previous day, my brother and I had been at her bedside. Death was overdue, but there was an inexplicable delay in delivering the end-of-life meds and it was distressing to witness the woman who had brought us into the world making her way out of it in a state of agitated bewilderment. Words had deserted her.

Sometimes caregivers ask me what books might help them make sense of what they’re going through. Generally, they have in mind the various guidebooks that offer practical advice. I’m perfectly happy to recommend such books, as I am a few novels and stories that deal specifically with Alzheimer’s and other dementia disorders. But to my mind, it is not literature about dementia disorders that captures the existential strain, the strangeness, and the uncanny yet still ordinary world of the disease.

There is a deceptively simple optical illusion that consistently fools us. The Müller-Lyer illusion consists of two parallel lines, one with fins pointing inward and the other with fins extending outward. The lines are of equal length, yet no matter how many times we measure them, the one with the fins diverging will always appear longer. This tension between what we know conceptually and what we perceive instinctively is built into us and is, I believe, at the heart of the caregiver's dilemma.

Elizabeth often met her husband, Mitch, after work at the same restaurant in Lower Manhattan. Mitch was usually there by the time she arrived, swirling his drink and joking with a waiter. Elizabeth and Mitch had been friends before becoming romantically involved and bantered back and forth without missing a beat. Anyone looking at their table might well have envied them, never suspecting that Elizabeth dreaded these pleasant get-togethers.
