Film Documentary
Christine, a 46-year-old mother of three, with a distinguished career, was diagnosed with dementia (Alzheimer's Disease). Recently divorced, the news sent her into a tailspin, and was emotionally devastating for her daughters. Three years after her diagnosis, she met Paul Bryden, a former diplomat. Despite her diagnosis, they fell in love and married; two super achievers, one embarking on an inevitable journey of decline.
Faced with the prospect of cognitive degeneration, Christine charted the "progress" of her disease. Most dramatically, she faced the question, "Who am I?" as her memory and cognitive function declined. Hers was an emotional and spiritual journey, accompanied by Paul, a loving and supportive husband. She has a positive outlook on life, despite the challenges she faces each day. Christine, Paul and her daughters speak frankly of their thoughts and feelings, as they each look at a new perspective on life through the lens of dementia.
