This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.
It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.
The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.

TREATMENT VIDEO + ARTICLE: There’s good news about the investigational drug Lecanemab: a Phase 3 clinical trial showed the anti-amyloid beta antibody slows cognitive decline
At long last, we finally have a disease-modifying drug for Alzheimer’s. The FDA recently approved a new drug that promises to slow the progression of the disease. Only five Alzheimer’s treatments have been approved by the FDA up until a decade ago, and this is only the second to address the progression of the disease.
In dementia, quality light improves mood, awareness and vision. Therapeutic lamps go further, reducing Alzheimer’s agitation, getting sleep cycles on schedule and easing depression. See the benefits.
DEMENTIA TEST + INSTRUCTIONS:
The RUDAS Dementia Test is brief, effective and free. It works well for most people. (It performs even better than other quick tests for people with cultural barriers, low education levels, or when English is not one’s first language.)

I bought this book on Amazon. It's wonderful and great stories. I read two of them and that's all I could handle. I cried so hard I couldn't read anymore that day. there are people in all areas that have written about their family members and how ALZ have affected their lives. I recommend it and am so glad I got it.
