It was opening night. The place was packed.

那晚是首演之夜全场爆满
Hundreds of people coming to see me.

成千上万的人赶来一睹我的风采
It was wonderful...

各种美好
Till the middle of the second act

直到第二幕演到一半
when my mind just went blank.

那时我脑子里突然一片空白
It was like someone took a chalkboard and wiped it with a sponge.

就像有个人在用海绵擦拭黑板
And there was this terrible long moment

而在那么一段长得恐怖的时间里
where I didn't know why I was on the stage.

我都记不起自己为什么会在台上
Oh, must have been awful.

那滋味肯定很难受
It was.

是的
But it's only the beginning.

但这还只是开端
Alzheimer's is a degenerative disease.

老年痴呆症是种让你逐渐衰退的病症
