Welcome. About this Site.
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.

Very helping and understanding introduction to AD and early signs of disease.
I'm concerned about having this disease when I get older. Both of my parents passed away with it and I'm curious about what my chances are of dealing with it too.
if you go to 23andme you can get a At home DNA test and they have that as one of the tests, you can even ask your physician to check you for the genetic marker. if you do 23 and me and the health report isn't complete, cause they have changed things, you can go to Prometheas.com and it for a 5 dollar fee, will scan your DNA(using it from 23andme) and give you a very though rough health report. Staying physically active, eating healthy and constantly using your brain, is suppose to help ward off alzheimers.

Just a friendly reminder from a music therapist. Enjoy the many benefits of singing familiar songs when ever you get the chance to let it happen! Who needs the right lyrics? Make up your own around an affirmation for healthy living.i.e.using “She’ll be Comin around the Mountain “substitute..”I am exercising every chance I get”. At times when you find yourself TELLING yourself something to remember, try SINGING it instead! Allow the brain to form a new pathway as a memory aid.
it would have been helpful to have examples of both behaviour patterns, not a vague statement, then a specific example for the aging related
