I was reading from a magazine where I saw an article about an old lady struggling with Alzhemer's,<br/><br/>and there was a sentence that went like this: "Her langugae skills fragment as do judgement and insight."<br/><br/>Now my questions is,<br/><br/>how could something abstract like language skill FRAGMENT?<br/><br/>I can comprehend if one's memories fragment,<br/><br/>which must mean that person's memories have somehow faded so that some of them are incomplete.<br/><br/>Anyone got any idea?
