![“I [...] vowed that rather than let Alzheimer's take me, I would take it. I would live my life as ever to the full and die, before the disease mounted its last attack, in my own home, in a chair on the lawn, with a brandy in my hand to wash down whatever modern version of the "Brompton cocktail"…” quote by Terry Pratchett](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f3b/terry-pratchett-19_alzheimer_i-vowed-that-rather-than-let-alzheimer-s_428272.jpg)
