From South Carolina, as reported in USA Today comes a story about Alzheimer's effecting an entire family, with 5 out of 10 siblings eventually getting the disease. A woman saw her sister, who was in a separate car, get on the freeway in front of her and then drive down the wrong side of the highway, towards oncoming traffic, while accelerating. Sheer terror washed over the sister, who shouted and pounded on the steering wheel while honking the horn of her car, following, a short distance behind.

What a feeling of helplessness.
