My grandfather would cry when he was trying to communicate with us. He loved to talk. It was so sad to watch. Then he just stopped speaking altogether.

Oh God... this is sooo sad. :( I wouldn't wish for this to happen to my worst enemy. It must be so aggravating for anyone with this condition.

I totally forgot what the question was about 50 seconds into the video.

the problem is not writing down or speaking, they have no problem with vocabulary, they can easily identify objects, but they cannot put words into a grammatical sentence. they lose their conjugating ability, the sense of tenses, etc. for example they say "me ... speech ... you" meaning "I want to talk to you", or "car .... fast" meaning "this car is fast".

1:05 "what did you do about it?"

2:05 "leg's ached"

could anyone tell me what the doctor is saying at 1:05 and 2:05 ? I dont have enough listening skill to catch his speech.
