I just finished reading this wonderful book "Still Alice". It's a first novel for Lisa Genova about an accomplished woman who slowly loses her thoughts and memories to early onset Alzheimer's disease. I started crying half way through the book and didn't stop till I was finished - actually, when I think of it now I start to cry all over again. A very powerful and vivid depiction of this terrible disease - one that will stay with you for a long time.....
