man, this hit me pretty hard. my grandmother had alzheimer's for the last few years of her life and it's one of those things that's really difficult to put into words. the way it changes someone while they're still right there in front of you... it's a strange kind of grief.

the fact that you wrote this for your brother and for Bill makes it even more meaningful. you can tell it comes from a real place. i think that's what makes a song stick with people — when you can feel that the person who wrote it actually lived through something.

i listened to it and the lyrics really carry the weight well. "hardest song i've ever written" — i believe it. some songs just need to exist even if they're painful to make. thanks for sharing this one.

This is a song I wrote back n 2024, when both my oldest brother and Strummerboy Bill (who most everyone on chordie knew or knows of) were first dealing with early signs of dementia (a.k.a. Alzheimer's disease) . It is a very sad, heartbreaking condition, not only for the victim, but also for those who love them.

Bill, if you are reading this - I hope it brings back some memories of the good times shared here on chordie.

I re-wrote some of it today and recorded it using AI bc I can't sing or play music well enough to do it myself

Here is the link (the lyrics are posted there as well).
Probably the hardest song I've ever written.
