S7E6-Jay&MavisLeno-Dementia-2

a sandy shoreline where the ocean tide is washing over a collection of personal items. In this episode we feature Jay Leno and his wife Mavis, how things they loved to do together have slipped away along with her memory. Two books, titled "Behind the Burqa" and "Afghanistan" by Louis Dupree, are stacked in the center as a wave flows over them, representing the avid reading and advocacy work Mavis Leno did on behalf of women in Afghanistan. Beside the books rests a delicate silver olive wreath again representing her advocacy work and nomination for a Nobel Peace Prize. In the foreground, a vibrant silk scarf in orange, teal, and purple is partially swirled in the foam. To the right, an Italian restaurant menu and a small desktop globe are being carried away by the water into the sea, symbolizing the "tide" of memory loss.
