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.

I wanted to make you aware of my new book – Conversations Across America: A Father and Son, Alzheimer's, and 300 Conversations Along the TransAmerica Bike Trail – that could be helpful and inspiring to your readers. The story was recently featured in the Houston Chronicle:

Hello there. Your blog is quite impressive. I'm reaching out because I wondered if you'd be interested in:
-a guest blog post
-a free book to review for your blog (made for caregivers)
-a sponsorship
Or some other way to partner together.
I create materials for caregivers and those with Alzheimers and Dementia. Please reach out if you're interested at krisdkrisd (at) gmail (dot) com. Thank you and talk soon.
Hi,
I hope you're having a great week so far!
I wanted to help raise awareness by sharing this useful article called "Improving Your Brain Health and Quality of Life" – https://tnnfb.com/blog/2022/5/18/neurofeedback-in-tennessee-improving-your-brain-health-and-quality-of-life
This article explores the benefits of Neurofeedback, its common uses, and potential risks.
Could we put it on your blog or article page? If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks in advance!
