Unraveling the Mysteries of Dementia: Robert Kolker’s Deep Dive into Love, Loss, and the Vanishing Family
“The choices they all face — whether to get tested, have children, tell their friends — was breathtaking.” Robert Kolker
L.L.: The story really begins in 1949, but even before then. Ollie and Jean meet at college and fall in love. They marry. They relocate to St. Louis, Missouri, then a brief stop in Ohio, before settling in Pleasant Hills. Jean’s family is from Wisconsin. There are sojourns to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and a stop or two in Denver. What I am getting at is there are no true origins to a family, or even a story, and especially when they involve genetics and genealogy.
