Series VII: Subject Files (Created by Others), 2005-2012
This series contains materials created by others regarding Edwards, mostly dating towards the end of his life. Much of it was created by his wife, Rachel Hadas. The series includes correspondence regarding a concert and a recording session of Edwards' works, a list of books, scores, and recordings owned by Edwards at the time of his death, and a folder of extensive medical records and correspondence regarding Edwards' illness and death. Edwards began to experience unidentified symptoms in the late 1990s that developed to include dementia, and were attributed to Alzheimer's disease after a brain autopsy following his death in 2011. The medical records may be useful to researchers aiming to understand the experience of Alzheimer's sufferers and their families.
