"We Are Not Alone"

stars that glittered and almost seemed to touch one another like no other place on earth had always seemed to beckon her husband.
It was on a very pristine, crisp night in early December of 2015, when Sara Redman first heard the four words that were so clearly articulated by her beloved husband. That episode began just a few weeks ago.
Sara immediately called the staff specialist in to witness what Jack had said. The doctor who had devoted much of his life to caring for patients with Jack’s form of dementia was astounded. He had never seen anything like it before and found it inexplicable that Jack, a man who had such advanced Alzheimer’s disease, could articulate a whole sentence and with such clarity. It was commonplace for patients with moderate Alzheimer’s to repeat phrases over and over and even articulate them to a rhythm.
“But this, this is off the charts!” Dr. Jack Redman’s doctor stated in total shock as he watched and listened intently when his patient would say those words over and over; yet strangely enough for just those two early evenings, back to back. And then just as oddly, Jack stopped saying them. Even after being coaxed to repeat the words by Sara and he, Jack stared blankly ahead. Then in the final week of December, Dr. Jack Redman repeated the phrase again and then again, just as clearly as before, at around the same time, for just the two evenings in concession.

“We are not alone!” And then again, “we are not alone!”
