Researchers are exploring a therapy that involves the use of a surgically implanted device that delivers mild electrical pulses to specific areas of the brain in people with Alzheimer’s. Listen to one couple’s experience.


People with mild Alzheimer’s who are participating in the ADvance II Study to determine the efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) discuss their experience with the therapy, which involves a surgically implanted device that delivers mild electrical pulses to the fornix, a place in the brain that plays a central role in memory.

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.
