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.

My husband did not like the feeling of the shower raining down on him. I think it felt like “too much”. Once we replaced the stationery shower head with a handheld one he was fine with taking a shower. Simple, but effective! Thank you for such a helpful video!
