Which is why I wear a bike helmet...

I think if I lost my mind, I would go crazy (well, no duh, of course I'd be crazy if I had no mind - ha ha). But seriously, I think if I was to have a significant head injury, or a stroke, or early dementia, something that would seriously limit or eliminate my ability to reason, to remember, to express myself.... gosh, I would go mad. Having to go around and excuse myself because I couldn't explain myself well or remember things appropriately, or to have a goofy grin on my face all the time, because I wasn't able to distinguish sarcasm or ill-will from well-wishers, or to be unable to put together a sentence, let alone a recipe.... I think that would be worse than malignant metastatic cancer, to be honest.
