She actually had been thought to have it just around the time kala was 1, but as is the case with this disaese they can't actually diagnose that anyone has it until of all things... until they are dead, and they can do a biopsy on the brain to determine it for sure.
i'm honestly not as hitby this as Kala and Angie are though, and not just because it's the mother in law. I just knew it was coming. I went through the same thing when my grandfather had Alzhiehmers, and I knew what to expect over time. I'm more hit and made to hurt because of having to see Kala and Angie going through this. i had already come to terms with this a while ago. I feel like such a terrible person for feeling this way, but it's the only way I can feel.
Snootch, i was in the same situation when my Grandmother passed away... i wasn't really close to her and she'd be 'dying' for want of a better word for anumber of years... but the biggest thing i learn't, is its in no way about me(or you in this case)... you're in no way a bad person for feeling the way you are, your not dead inside or soulless, you've delt with it and thats fine!! You just have to be there for those who are hurting, the death cut my mother and sister to bits, and i learn't very quickly(well after a day or two of being a complete dick) that support, love and caring for them is what is important!!!
I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old, the stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." "If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored."

so you prepared a long time ago... it is so easy to go thru a stage of denial of death and think it will never happen cuz it ain't happened yet.
