It was gut wrenching seeing this brilliant man forget all he knew.<BR/><BR/>Once a really large nurse came in to give him a shot and he told her no. She didn't listen. So he took his big hand and gentley pushed her back to her great amazement.<BR/><BR/>My dad took him to the doctor one day and had to stop at the bank. When dad came out Alvin was getting out of the car. Dad asked him, "What are you doing?" He said,"I've got to use the bathroom." Needless to say he used the bathroom right there in public! Which was totally unlike him as he was a very quiet kind man with an amazing life story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
