From the BBC:
Garcia Marquez 'suffering from dementia', says brother
The brother of Gabriel Garcia Marquez says that the Colombian writer and winner of the 1982 Nobel Prize for Literature is suffering from dementia.
Jaime Garcia Marquez told students at a lecture in the city of Cartagena that his brother, who is 85, phones him frequently to ask basic questions.
"He has problems with his memory. Sometimes I cry because I feel like I'm losing him," he said.
He says the author has stopped writing altogether.

It is true that all flesh is grass.
It is also true that some of that flesh is crabgrass and some is Kentucky Bluegrass.
