The project "L'Albero dei Ricordi – la memoria condivisa non si perde" collects the memories of people living with Alzheimer's disease. Giorgio, age 95, shared recollections of his first kiss with his wife, describing it as a timid moment that represented a lifelong commitment. His wife, Maria, is 80 years old and spoke about her travels to Australia.

Chiara Pelizzoni reports that common themes in the memories of those with Alzheimer's include love, the joy of childbirth, and work. The project comes ahead of World Alzheimer's Day on September 21.
