A friend of mine was diagnosed with a rare type of Amnesia last year. We're only 20. The doctor has said it can be subdued a little with medication but it's impossible to permanently cure it. She was said that she'll lose all her memories in 5-6 years, won't even recognize her parents. I cried when I first heard it. She's such a bright girl, she's gorgeous, she shines so beautifully, she was only 19 when she got diagnosed, she has her whole life ahead of her. She's always smiling so beautifully that no one would even guess what she's going through. Maybe Almighty gives the hardest tests to the most beautiful souls, I don't know.
I feel like crying everytime I see her, not because I pity her, I wouldn't dare. But because I feel guilty to be all well and healthy when she's like this and I can't even do anything about it. I feel sad because this beautiful soul won't remember all the good memories she's made all her life in a few years. I'm scared to be forgotten by this lovely human.
That's why this story made me bawl my eyes out. It was sad but it also reminded me of my friend who's in a similar situation. She still hasn't explored so many things, she hasn't experienced so much, hasn't seen the world yet. She's the one who's having it harder than any of us around her because knowing she'll forget all about the people she loves? I can't even dare to imagine how she must feel.
