Why does that damn Aricept Ad keep getting in the way of my posting ability??!

Don't they know that each Alzheimer's/Dimensia patient is different and that drug therapy is for it is still in the dark ages?

1. Maybe you need to contribute a few dollars to DU.
It will all magically go away.

3. Speaking of Aricept
It kept my mother's dementia from getting worse for 5 years. It was possible to have conversations with her until she died of pancreatic cancer. For that I'm grateful.

I just thought a nice plug for medication that really helps might ease your frustration a little.

5. Both my parents take Aricept.
Dad takes the max dosage, without it he would be seeing people and animals and taking his clothes off, like last year.

Mom just started with one tab a day to keep from being so forgetful.

Sigh.

I'm happy for Aricept.

:pals:

4. First. Getting anti-democracy advocates to donate to DU
is really funny Second, If you would part with a few dollars you wouldn't see them for like a year so quit whining and donate a few bucks. Even I, unemployed for most of the last year could manage a few dollars.
