Dementia 

An older comedian pretends to be an old, demented man. The audience laughs awkwardly. I cannot laugh. I just returned from visiting my parents. As usual, I wonder "how long"? How long will I be able to see them? How long will they remain sound of mind and body? How long until I have to wash them. How long until I have to tell them my name , every time I visit? How long, until I no longer recognize them?

I hope it will be "very long", but I'm too much of a thinker to be fooled by that.
