Now I am wondering what I would know if I'd grown up in a dementia unit.

I want a cat like that.

i don't. a cat who doesn't hang out with you until your final hours? nope. I want my cats around while I'm still likely to notice.

but when I go, I would like for some nice creature to curl up next to me and walk me through the gates.

I tried to go and read the original article at NEJM, but it's subscription only. grr. still, fascinating story.
