During the last fifteen years of my mother's life she suffered with Alzheimer's disease (老年性癡呆). Until then she had been a bright, 1 woman deeply interested and involved in the world around her. I would go home to visit her in Virginia and she would look at me in a(an) 2 way and ask, "Who are you?" I would answer, "I'm your son." "Where do you live?" She would ask. "In California," I would tell her. "Isn't that interesting," she would say, "I have a son in California."
She seemed 3 forgetful and confused at the beginning of the disease, 4 later on she would go 5 periods of intense anxiety. She would pace through the house she had lived in most of her life 6 uneasily that she wanted to go home. Or she would leave home and wander away if she were 7 for a short time.   
Hoping to please her and put her mind 8 I would take her for a drive, visiting sites where she had lived as a 9. In the yard of the hillside house in Shipman I sat in the car and admired the view of the old oaks and long green lawn. I 10 my mother there was a little girl playing with the pet lamb she had been so fond of. I looked to her for some 11. She shook her head and said, "I want to go home."
Over the years I have decided that what my mother was calling home was not a 12, but a time. I suspect it was a time when she was much 13, when her children were still underfoot, when her husband was still vigorous and attentive.
Watching my mother's suffering set me wondering 14 I would have in mind if someday I couldn't find 15 and wanted to go there. In this family we tend to be long-lived and we grow fuzzy (糊涂的) minded as the years go by. At eighty I have already noticed some 16 symptoms. My doctor says the forgetfulness is only 17 and that it comes with age. Still the fear of Alzheimer's is haunting there. Someday 18 and when I become even more 19 minded than I am now, unable to drive and unable to tell you where "home" is, my dear son, I expect I will ask you to take me home, I know you will do your best to find the place I need to be. I leave these notes for your 20.
