Welcome. About this Site.
This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

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.

I LOVE this! It's like me and my dad on our drives! When a song comes on that he knows, he breaks out in song with the most amazing voice, and I join him for the fun of it! Thanks for sharing. Looks like they truly enjoy these times together .
