The Sundowner Syndrome is one of the worst manifestations of that way this mind-altering scourge manifests itself. A loved one in the daytime becomes an enemy of the dementia sufferer at night and must be kicked out as an abominable person trying to impersonate the carer or loved one.

That happens to me on a regular basis and it is hard to sustain.

And tonight is the eighth time I am not me but someone with inveighing intent.
