Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko Barbara Smith, he tauira o mua, he rangatira wharekai hoki, e kōrero ana mō tōna pakanga ki te mate o Alzheimer i roto i tētahi uiuinga hou. I a ia e korero ana ki a Al Roker, i kii a Smith mo te wa i kitea ai ia; 'Kei te roimata oku kanohi. Engari i taua wā anō ka mea ahau, "E kore ahau e tukua atu ki a ia. Ka whawhai ahau". I kii tana tahu i te wa ano he uaua ki a ia te rongo, ina koa i te kitenga o tana wahine e mamae ana. Ka mea a Dan Gasby; 'Ki te kore tetahi e tika ana mo tenei ko tenei wahine na te mea ko ia te tangata tino reka, kaore he mea. Na, i muri i to kanga i te Atua, ka tono koe ki te murunga hara.' I tēnei wā, ka nui ake ngā wero o te tokorua, ina koa i muri i tētahi take i ngaro ai a Smith mō te 17 haora i te marama o Whiringa-ā-rangi i mua, ā, i kitea i te mutunga ki tētahi wharekai i Manhattan. 'I whakaaro ahau kua ngaro ia ahau,' ka mea a Gasby. 'I whakaaro ahau kua ngaro ia. He rite tonu ki te noho i roto i te moemoea, engari kei te mataara koe.' Panuku ki raro mō te ataata.

I eke ia ki te poti ki Staten Island i reira ka eke ia ki te pahi ka eke ano ki te poti ki te hoki ki te taone nui. I te mutunga, ka haere a Smith ki te wharekai o La Parisienne i te Seventh Avenue.

E kōrero ana a Barbara 'B' Smith, 65, mō tōna pakanga ki te mate o Alzheimer i roto i tētahi uiuinga ki Today. I kii ia ko tana whakaaro tuatahi i te wa i kitea ai ia, 'Kaore au e tuku atu ki a ia. Ka whawhai ahau' Koinei tōna uiuinga nui tuatahi mai i tōna ngaro i Southampton, New York i te Whiringa-a-rangi o te tau kua hipa. I eke ia ki tētahi tereina mai i New York City ki Sag Harbor, engari i heke ia i roto i te 10 maero mai i tōna ūnga whakamutunga. I kitea ia i tētahi wharekai i Manhattan i te ata o te Wenerei, ā, i hui anō ki tōna whānau.
