My grandmother has Alzheimer. And it is difficult to deal with her. It's been a year now she gets worse day by day. She's taking medicines yet it doesn't ease her condition at all. Everyday is a hastle with her and she's illiterate, stubborn and she sometimes speaks in her native language which only her daughters understand. She wets her bed and refuses to confess to it, and sneaks into the toilet because she doesn't want anyone to see her go number1 or 2. She stays in one of the rooms of the house and thinks we're her neighbours once we step in on her. She makes up names to call us and talks about things that never happened and says that she spoke to people who are already dead. Sometimes if she is feeling worse, she claims that she is the cleaning lady at our house and that it's time for her to leave and go home, mind you she never worked a day in her life.

I got back from caring for my grandma with Alzheimer's for a week, and it was very challenging. She doesn't remember me. It was most difficult when she imagined I was stealing from her, that really hurt my feelings. And when relatives told me how unfortunate it is that I didn't get to know her much when she was healthy.

Do not procreate. You or anyone can end up having alzheimer's. I've been taking care of my mother who is suffering from this illness. It's a real nightmare. You never know what kind of fate is waiting. Life is a gamble. The only way to not be in this sick game is to have never been born.

The brain and nerves are protected by 100% cholesterol. And what have they been pushing in modern day dieting To lower it. Dont take my word for it, look at the data from 30 years ago to today, less cholestrol = more alzheimers.

What if they try and find a way to get rid of the stickiness that is messing with the brain or give the patients the bodily chemicals they've lost when they were I'm their youth

Alzheimer's is considered Type-3 diabetes. i don't think it's a coincidence that processed foods and refined sugars have skyrocketed at the same rate as this disease.

In her book, Hellen Brain's character who is about 10 or 12 thinks Alzheimer's is called OldTimer's disease. I thought that was a good one.

I wish we can find cures to Cancers, Alzheimers and Insomnia. I have insomnia and im afraid I'm gonna have either of these two one day. It's scary.

I had a friend whose grandma forgot even her son due to Alzheimer. and this seems devasting even to listen that something like this happens!
reply

All we can do is better the life we already have. It's a fact that we can't change the inevitable. We just have to learn to go along.

Cancer and dementia are two great evils in the world. We need to continue tackling age-related diseases, and aging itself.
