“She is leaving him, not all at once, which would be painful enough, but in a wrenching succession of separations. One moment she is here, and then she is gone again, and each journey takes her a little farther from his reach. He cannot follow her, and he wonders where she goes when she leaves.”

  5. What a moving quote. A friend of mine whose father suffers with Alzheimers once described it as 'the longest goodbye' which is summed up in your quote beautifully.
