I often hear people say that a person suffering from Alzheimer's is not the person they knew. I wonder to myself - Who are they then?

I am saddened when I hear these words -this is not the person I knew - because those words objectify the person suffering from Alzheimer's. When you objectify a person you also dehumanize them. Once dehumanized the person becomes a villain.

When you objectify a person living with dementia, you dehumanize them. Once dehumanized, the person becomes a villain.
