    ※ 文字稿:

    "Good morning.

    It's an honor to be here.

    The poet Elizabeth Bishop once wrote:

    'The art of losing isn't hard to master.

    So many things seem filled

    with the intent to be lost

    that their loss is no disaster.'

    I am not a poet.

    I am a person living

    with early onset Alzheimer's.

    And as that person, I find myself

    learning the art of losing every day.

    Losing my bearings,

    losing objects, losing sleep,

    but mostly, losing memories."

    Oh, no.

    Thank you. Um...

    I think I'll try to forget

    that just happened.

    "All my life,

    I've accumulated memories.

    They've become, in a way,

    my most precious possessions.

    The night I met my husband,

    the first time I held my textbook

    in my hands,

    having children, making friends,

    traveling the world.

    Everything I accumulated in life,

    everything I've worked so hard for,

    now all that is being ripped away.

    As you can imagine, or as you know,

    this is hell.

    But it gets worse.

    Who can take us seriously

    when we are so far

    from who we once were?

    Our strange behavior

    and fumbled sentences

    change others' perceptions of us

    and our perception of ourselves.

    We become ridiculous,

    incapable, comic.

    But this is not who we are.

    This is our disease.

    And like any disease, it has a cause,

    it has a progression

    and it could have a cure.

    My greatest wish is that my children,

    our children, the next generation,

    do not have to face what I am facing.

    But for the time being, I'm still alive.

    I know I'm alive.

    I have people I love dearly.

    I have things I wanna do with my life.

    I rail against myself

    for not being able to remember things,

    but I still have moments in the day

    of pure happiness and joy.

    And please,

    do not think that I am suffering.

    I am not suffering.

    I am struggling.

    Struggling to be a part of things,

    to stay connected to who I once was.

    'So live in the moment, ' I tell myself.

    It's really all I can do.

    Live in the moment.

    And not beat myself up too much...

    And not beat myself up too much

    for mastering the art of losing.

    One thing I will try to hold on to, though,

    is the memory of speaking here today.

    It will go.

    I know it will.

    It may be gone by tomorrow,

    but it means so much

    to be talking here today

    like my old, ambitious self,

    who was so fascinated

    by communication."

    Thank you for this opportunity.

    It means the world to me.

    Thank you.
