Monday 9th March 2015 ~ Today Mummy and me went to see Still Alice at the Barbican with my friend Dorothy and her Mummy. It was about a lady who was diagnosed with early Alzheimer's at the age of fifty. It began with her forgetting things here and there and throughout the film, she gradually disappeared. Mummy said it was frightening and devastating and made her think about life and death and loss and all sorts of things that were far too heavy for maternity leave and a Monday morning.
Mummy put me down on this seat and I worried that she might disappear too but luckily she quickly picked me up for a cuddle and took me home. 8/10.
