Yes, I've seen a very close aunt's health deteriorate due to Parkinson's and she is wheelchair bound now. My school friend's dad has Alzheimer's for past few years. It's painful to watch someone who was once an Executive in a MNC, a chemistry scholar; now he can't remember if he ate or took medicine or recognize family and friends.
