Theory of Alzheimer's disease is lurking in the character of Meredith Grey. This has been a concomitant disease for the main character in many seasons as a voiceover of her makes a profligate way of saying the stories. 

In the "Grey's Anatomy" Pilot Episode, it shared its first medical case that educated much the viewers about Alzheimer's disease. The show started to brand itself between revealing twist and expected the outcome.

All episodes of "Grey's Anatomy" tell a demented sense of cases faced in Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital by our brave doctors. Meredith's voiceover seemed like telling the stories of many disasters, shootings, and  deaths from the future, said on Glamour.

At first, there was an assumption that Meredith was telling the story to her mother who also suffers from Alzheimer's Diseases. In "Grey's Anatomy" Season 13, it finally revealed that she herself turned out positive with the genetic disorder following her mother's illness.

It turned out that Meredith is telling the stories to her children but with transformed perception which travel between the narrative point and reality, said on Citizen Oracle. If this theory is correct, then it is a centerpiece of heartbreaking the viewer's expectation for the hit series.

The writers are finding ways to touch viewer's emotion to follow the seasons. The dynamics of these, however, may also change viewer's perception. "Grey's Anatomy" run over the years and twists such as these may change public opinions.

Entertainment Weekly posted a similar theory about Meredith's condition and how she is telling the story. They view it as a "betrayal of their trust as emotions were given with fake perspective". The attachment viewers have for "Grey's Anatomy" is substantially built with facts in their understanding.

Regardless of how creative the creators and the producers want it to come out, the audience still wants a sense of reality. Just to realize that even a non-fiction TV series entertains fictional plot that makes the show interesting.
