      Author’s note

      This fictional story tells a transitional tale of living in an aged care environment. Nancy, the star of the story, was a popular movie actress. With her memory fading and confusion setting in, Nancy is now living in shared accommodation. Her partner Neville visits every day and helps her to relive some of her favourite moments in film. To do this Neville has had the help of another aged care resident, Shirley. Today, Neville asks Shirley to take on a new role.

      Forgetting

      “Vague … spacey … no idea … a continual array of forgetfulness.” Nancy had heard it said over and over as she sat quietly in the blue cushioned chair.

      “There must be some reason for this occurring,” she thought to herself.

      Nancy shifted in her chair. She looked longingly out of the window. “What had occurred?” she questioned herself.

      Nancy closed her eyes and allowed herself to drift. From her chair she floated out the window into a sea of flowers … forget-me-nots.
