Chases POV:
What do they mean she has Alzheimers- Wait what's Alzheimers?

Chase: "what is that?"

I actually have no idea what that is? Am
I supposed to know-

Nurse: "Alzheimers is a disease where you can remember a lot of stuff from maybe 10 years ago, but you maybe can't remember anything from earlier that day."

What?? So she has short term memory?!
Why doesn't she remember me??

Chase: "does she not remember me?"
Nurse: "she doesn't recognize you and it may be hard for her to remember faces"

So I see my mom for the first time in years... and she doesn't even remember me...

Nurse: "she knows she has a son she just doesn't know it's you"

Oh.

Nurse: "she basically still thinks it's 2012 and she won't believe you if you tell her it's not"

This isn't good

Chase: "is there any way... she could regain her memory? Of me at least?"
Nurse: "I mean... it's pretty rare for someone with Alzheimers this bad to regain memory... but if you're committed and you're here every day, then maybe. Just maybe. She could regain memory of something."

I'm so happy that my mom is alive... but this just makes me feel even worse... she's basically dead still? She'll live out all her days then forget them??

Chase: "im fully committed. Il be here everyday."

I can't give up on her. I did this.
I will not give up on my mom.

Chase: "Il be here every-"

Charli- what am I gonna tell her?? I don't want to involve her in this?? Plus I don't know if I'm ready to tell her... this is my mom we are talking about? She's alive and I've been lying to Charli all these years. I don't know if I should tell her.

What Il do is I will spend the entire day with her then at night I will sneak out and do this. I don't want to be a bad boyfriend or a bad son so Il be good at both.

Chase: "Il be here every night. Late."
Nurse: "this is a very time consuming thing to do you know?"

I don't care.
Im doing it

I walked up to my mom

Miss Hudson: "who are you?? Who are you??"
Chase: "mom. I am your son"

tears formed in my eyes

Miss Hudson: "you remind me a lot of my son, he's a lot younger then you."

I nodded

Miss Hudson: "you should see him. He is adorable, always rambling on about his little girlfriend"

I laughed

Miss Hudson: "to tell you the truth I hated her-"
Chase: "what??"

Wait she hated Charli?

Miss Hudson: "you sound just like him!"
She laughed
