The throw Still Alice, by Lisa Genova is about a woman in her early fifties who is
diagnosed with Early-Onset Alzheimers. This story chronicles the trials and tribulations that the important character Alice and her family go through, and how they all adapt to and deal with this red-hot and scary diagnosis. Lisa Genova does an amazing job in capturing the emotions of the characters in her story, and the paddy wagon of her audience as tumefy.
The opening face in this book takes place in the home of the main character Alice and her hubby John. Alice is upstairs in her bedroom getting ready for her mean solar day as a professor on Harvard Universitys campus. She is deflect by the sound of her husband John downstairs left-handed about looking for his keys. Alice goes downstairs and sees the keys immediately next to a bowl on the counter. What is quite interesting about this scene is the thought that crosses her mind after finding the keys. Alice thinks to herself, How could he, someone so smart, a scientist, not see what was right in strawman of him? (Genova, 2007, p. 4) Alice a woman not yet diagnosed with Early-Onset Alzheimers questions something so small, and at the time so apparent to her, and she cannot understand why a man so smart cannot accomplish something so miniscule.

Towards the rest of her speech she forgets the word Lexicon. Another day Alice goes for a run, a path that she runs e genuinely day and out of nowhere she stops. She cannot reckon the way home.
