The experiences of dementia sufferers have rarely been examined in sociological literature. This article seeks to describe the experiences of one Alzheimer's Disease patient at the point of institutionalization in order to address a series of questions. Can Alzheimer's Disease patients be thought of as experiencing subjects? Is experience tied to modes of expression? An answer to this set of questions is sought by problematizing the concept of 'voice,' freeing it from a restricted location in natural language to embed it in other forms of embodiment.
