Declining cognitive state is very random.

Not being able to recognize oneself from a mirror and being spooked by stranger in the mirror. Shadows or even floor lamp in the corner may be scary person. The rest of life can become scary hell where you don't know what is going and where you are. Even very peaceful persons become aggressive when they are confused and scared.

Forget VR. If I get Alzheimer I want euthanasia or drugs. Maybe gradually increasing opiates that take all pain away and I eventually stop breathing at night.
