Turning on the Lights

by John L. Keller

Overview

What if they cured Alzheimer's?

Marc Nelson is a long time nursing home resident who is suffering from advanced Alzheimer's. He has been selected by a research group to receive an experimental treatment for Alzheimer's. The treatment works and Marc's brain now functions like that of a normal person.

The problem is that the treatment only restored Marc's logic and reasoning skills. The treatment did not restore his memories. Marc now thinks he is twenty years younger and has only partial memories of his past. He is convinced that he has a daughter and that she needs him. The doctors have no record of his daughter and they believe that his memory of a daughter is a left over delusion from his Alzheimer's state.

Marc knows that only after he finds his daughter can he restart his new life. This is a story of Marc journey to rediscover his past and find his daughter that only he believes in.

About the Author

I was born in rural Texas in 1957. I drifted through life without much purpose until I joined the Air Force in 1979. I was a technician and worked on the navigation systems of B-52G bomber and the KC-135 tanker. I left the Air Force in 1983. I got a Associate degree in Electronics in Waco, Texas and went to work for a defense contractor in Dallas. I have been there ever since.

I went part time to the University of Texas at Dallas and graduated with a BS in Economics and Finance.

My life really started in 1996 when I got married. I have been happy ever since. I have one child. A wonderful daughter. I enjoy my vacations with my wife and daughter to Las Vegas.
