    My father developed dementia and some of my siblings took advantage of him financially. I live in a different state but I got conservatorship and moved him into my home to protect him and care for him.
    Yes, some things were challenging, but he was delightful and I was blessed to have him with me and it was my honor to take care of my dear beloved father.
    (I could never put him in a nursing home, not ever. I don't understand families who do.) He was with me for almost 10 years before he passed, 8 years ago today. I miss him every day. He always told me, "We will all be together again someday." I believe him.

I only want to tell people: Do not try to bring them to the present. The memory may disappear but emotions stay. LOVE STAYS. Love your family member(s). Listen to their stories and don't force their answers. It is difficult but I promise it is worth it.

      @@friedasenior2805 if you're wondering about the stages, there is (unoffically) undetected, mild, mid and late stage. New research suggests Alzhiemers and Dementia starts 10-20 years before detection and once they are detected there is already so much damage from the disease the medicines can only slow the progression. From what I remember, once the mild stage hit he really liked shiny things and got frustrated easily. He knew he wasnt remembering things correctly for about 1 year until he hit the mid stage. The mid stage he changed, he started forgetting words and numbers, he couldn't really play his card games any more and got very confused after sunset. (Also known as sundowning) He was still himself but would go through bouts of confusion and could only preform his habits from years ago. He stopped talking as much. At late stage he couldn't even brew his coffee. He slept most the time and was afraid to bathe and had a hard time walking. At the last stages the brain basically forgets how to swallow so eating was difficult. He forgot people's names and was confused to where he was even though he lived with us in our home for 8 years at this point. He stopped really talking at all at that point but he could put down some liquor. 😂

Hallucinations are common at the mid to late stages and you cannot argue with them because that is their reality at the time.

      Do some aerobic exercise outside (get some walk) to improve your blood circulation in your body and it's important to get your complete body systems in getting oxygen from your top (brains to all internal systems) to the toes.
      If you do some dancing with music to have fun regularly, then you forget that you are doing the sports, by the way AND you have some socializing opportunities to be in touch with people around you.
      If you combine your fun activities with going to the fitness studio regularly as well, then the elderly people's wobbly skins and the muscles get more back in place as we look younger. Plus, your subconscious mind might be working on benefiting your eyes sights and your hormones to be improved by getting some other type of vitamins that are not prescribed on any pills.
      Imagination and your creativity help to switch from the negative depressed angry minds to the positive minds afterwards, if you take your initiative actions to do some socializing to communicate with other people. That way, you live longer with healthier mind, body, including your soul. The best possible place to do your aerobic exercise is at the "Outside" and "get your sunlight for your skins and for your internal organs are seriously looking forward to the actions of getting pumped up fresh nice clean oxygen" to explain extremely diplomatic ways in the shortest version of the most advanced scientific results of their studies for us all who want to hear the most quickest and the best efficient way to get us all healthy. Of course, eating well balanced minerals, healthy food, and avoid some sugar contained fluids possible to consume really limited amount of daily doses for your best interest. Alright? I have only interest in getting information to get healthy mind, body and the soul(s?). Of course it's really great to get nice delicious recipes. 😋😉♥️

      That’s why rational suicide makes sense. Look at peaceful pill and the final exit material. It’s a worldwide movement and there’s nothing wrong with making a plan for your exit strategy which is peaceful and will allow you to die with dignity. People were getting portable helium until they diluted it with 20% oxygen. Now just use nitrogen and it works the same way.

    I just saw this video tonight. My husband died November 20th 2019. he was diagnosed with early onset dementia in 1998 when he was 68 years old. He lived to be 88 years old but the Alzheimer's really devastated him. What I want to say is his dementia reminded me of the book or the cartoon Alice in wonderland. When Alice was lost and she sees a sign don't step on the mome raths and the dog with the broom on its face is brushing away the path she needs to follow to find her way home. That's what it was like for Teddy. As if someone was erasing the day before and the day before that and the day before that someone was erasing his life backwards. He could remember sitting with his father listening to Orson Welles broadcast of the war of the worlds in like 1939 but he couldn't remember my name and we were married 43 years.

      Alzheimer’s is a terrible disease. My brother is 72 and he has suffered from early-onset dementia for 10 years. Of course, it’s really his wife and adult children who suffer watching their husband and father slowly lose his ability to be independent. Unfortunately, my sister-in-law does not drive at all so they are often stuck at home. Their daughter is great about helping them with transportation, but she
      works full time and isn’t always available. I’m so sorry that the last 20 years of your marriage were so difficult for both of you. You may feel a terrible loss now without your husband, but I hope you also know this is your time to relax and visit friends and family. I’m praying that you will find comfort in the good memories you shared with him. Take care.

At one point, she was on the pot, saying she had to go... She would try to make chocolate milk using milk and coke.

    MCI? I first noticed about age 60, remembering where I parked my car in a large lot (Wal-MU) was a non-issue in my youth. At 67 I attended Real Estate Licensing Classes and passed the State Exam BUT at the end of each class I had a headache and I need to make an effort to remember where I park the car, it is no longer a given. At 70 I'm still high functioning BUT my memory is definitely not what it was. Information (memory) once accessed in an instant may now take several seconds to retrieve. Conclusion: I am fortunate to be comfortably "retired" and I know it is time to get busy on that bucket list. I have several friends in their 80's and few venture far from home. Note: I just finished reading a book and realized I must have read it years before, I didn't recall much detail but I knew where the story was going. Go figure? Cheers

    My mom told my grandmother that she would care for her as long as she could make it to the bathroom by herself.

When your parents reach that time in life many are elder themselves and physically unable to take care of an immobile parent.

    I imagine most of us are watching this in order to find out what we can do to prevent Alzheimer’s from happening to us. I certainly am. What little I know is that physical exercise is just as helpful in preventing Alzheimer’s as mental exercise, especially exercises involving balance (yoga?); it’s good for the brain. And most of all, I believe we need to stop eating the typical American diet of processed foods and start eating lots of vegetables as well as healthy fats. Look what’s been achieved with the Wahls Protocol (paleo diet): people with multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune diseases getting markedly better. It’s amazing! There’s no miracle cure, but surely natural foods, exercise, de-stressing, restful sleep, and connecting with other people form the foundation for a healthy old age. It’s a lifelong project.

      @Lynn Forrest. My beloved Mother died from the effectos of Alzheimer's. She stopped eating and then she stopped walking, because her legs just went. She love walking and used to walk up to three miles every day. She always exercised, didn't smoke or drink alcohol. And she always stuck to a healthy diet. I know walking is good, I walk a lot with my dog and it makes me feel good. Mother had a lot of stress in her life. As my Brother in-law did also. He always walked and exercised. And he too went through a lot of stress in the high profile job he had. I'm wondering if extreme stress has any relation to them both getting this disease.

    Thank you for this video. I keep looking for more info on this disease. In our family, there have been quite a number of cases and it has been so for my mother for the last 6 years. I rack my brain to know what the best ways to speak to her are. I live far away from them. My dad is at the brink so not easy. I remember how when she was 45 or so she wouldn't finish her sentences. I never thought it might be an early sign. Today she is 72 and hardly recognises people around her. But she is able to repeat what I say on the phone seconds after hearing it as to acquiesce.
    I wonder how a multilingual is affected. She has trouble reading at normal speed, when she speaks to me she reads my name of the screen of the phone many times as if wondering. She has all the terror episodes of not wanting to go to bed with a stranger and so on which is the hardest to deal with for me. She was going to day activity centre but somehow now she doesn't want to or something went on she isn't telling. Their life in winter is too monotonous. I try to tell my dad not to let her watch the news. It s like speaking to a dark hole unfortunately.
    If you need a case study, I might be your best card 😂, a cousin of mine and I started enumerating the number of aunties who suffered the same. Anyway, good luck to all and I hope you stay strong 😊🙏

His father went the same way, only he passed at 82 and Dad at 92. It seems to affect the men, not the women. Mom passed at 96, her faculties still intact, and her mother at 101, two months after 9-11. She’d broken her pelvis so was in an assisted living facility, but she managed to get on a landline pay phone and reach me in NY, just to make sure I was okay. She was living in Colorado near my cousins. Her sister lived to 104, also sharp as a tack. Both of them had the Spanish flu as young adults and survived. Two brothers also had it. One died and the other was always sickly, dying at age 45.

    I was 11 years old in 1977 when my Mum (aged 52) was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s. Just 2 years later she was placed in a seniors care home when she was only 54. She rapidly declined and passed away Dec 1986. I am 56 yrs old now so I have surpassed the age at which she was diagnosed. Since Alzheimer’s was diagnosed in my mother, I am very fearful that I will have the same fate. I never had children, so perhaps subconsciously I was preventing future generations of getting it. I sometimes have difficulty remembering names or I misplace an item and just can’t find it. I am too afraid to be tested for the gene. I am afraid for my 2 nieces and nephew.

I never misplace things and have never lost a set of keys or wallet as I've always been very organized. I AM absentminded BUT I've always been that way.

I will forget them in the next instant. At least, the most important one that made me get up to address it. Like something I wanted to do, then I can't remember the sequencing of those thoughts for a cue to remember the reason I got up and soon I can't remember any of it. It's been scaring me because my boyfriend and I have plans. I do digital art a lot and for a couple of years I can't remember the simple word 'contrast.' I mean, really? I just learned I may have colitis but I keep forgetting that simple word I have known all my life because a friend of mine had it. It always seems to be the same words then new words get added and now when I make lists paper lists won't work. I will lose them like my important medical appointments I had under a magnet. I lost them and have to find them but I get distracted a lot doing things and forget what I was doing. I now speak into the mic to remember things. Ugh.

    Cognitive loss can be non-medical. The removal of all that stimulation associated with work (as in retirement or a disability) will eventually reduce cognitive ability. I have seen it close to home. The people I know who make an effort to exercise their brains after retirement seem to fare better. This may well be just a demonstration of ability, I can't differentiate. To leave a life that was organized around absorbing, remembering and applying information by slowly losing those faculties is perhaps a cruel fate but I guess many folks suffer more because they died with all their faculties.

If this happens repeatedly, or you suddenly don’t know where you are in familiar places, see a neurologist. It doesn’t sound like dementia to me, especially given your age at the time. Did you see bright flashing or did a shade seem to obscure your vision in one eye? Those could be a precursor to a detached retina. If that happens, get yourself to A&E right away. If it was a one-time thing, I’d not worry about it.

    I beg to differ about asymptomatic stage. I just said goodbye to our mother and she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 2 years before death from vascular disease. There were symptoms. The biggest one was emotional triggering. Before her memory problems there was a lowered threshold to emotional triggers. From joy to paranoia to anger back to laughter. In the case of a coworker he would spend his lunch time watching funeral videos and cry. The memory thing is measurable and tangible, but the emotional thing is less rational and harder to measure.

      Now in many countries they are isolated anyway and locked in “nursing homes” or “carehomes” which are for these people worse than death. (IMHO as a former “regulator” of such facilities by a role as equivalent to a federal prosecutor investigating complaints then suing if the Justice Dept (in USA) believed settlement instead was not possible to achieve improvements). I saw cases in about 1/4 the US states; yes I saw some of the worst by the nature of the very circumstances of my job. But there will NEVER be enough ways or people who care to protect the most vulnerable from those who prey upon them (with diverse means and motivations) or are simply uncaring and apathetic as they go about their jobs. SOME kind and sophisticated, qualified “helpers” exist I’ve no doubt, but their number is dwarfed by the rest. It always has been so and likely always will be. Having money doesn’t protect you or your family- it may even cause you or them to be targeted for abuses if a family member is even alleged to have a mental impairment ;or a physical impairment). It’s all rather random - like life itself; but fir mysekd is rather have a swift end than any time whatsoever in a paternalistic or materialistic deprivation if my rights to live my own life. I’ve changed my stance ... I do believe we all die, abs that some fates are worse than death so it’s good to leave early (how to do this with certainty is difficult; many people starve themselves to death with family support) if faced with any allegation we are losing faculties. After all, do we want to in effect be murdered slowly in a degrading way or do we want to exercise autonomy? I am aware of strong ethics arguments to the contrary eg by Agnieszka Jawirska, PhD ((bioethicist at Univ if California @ Riverside, previously at Stanford abc before that at NIH’s Bioethice program where she worked with patients who HAD Alzheimer’s. She was edeucated at Princeton abs at Harvard, AB and PhD respectively). Ezekiel Emanuel (MD, PhD, each from Harvard) speaks in favor of always keeping people living to the end - except when it comes to himself (which he tries tj make into a mere joke, however it is a telling reality that he wants to be killed or “allowed to die,” by people who know him, if ever he were to become incapacitated). I could cite many OTHER applied philosophers (bioethicists) with philosophy backgrounds augmented by public health degrees, mental health degrees, law degrees, neuroscience degrees, and medical degrees. I’ll spare everyone. Jaworska’s article from *Philosophy & Public Affairs* (ca 1998), surveys real humans’ cases including previously intellectually high functioning people who executed advanced directives instructing that all life-sustaining help be withheld if ever incapacity became a legal question. One patient seemed perfectly happy eating PBJ sandwiches abd watching daytime chat TV although the patient could not understand the discussion she watched on TV (not very intellectually challenging!). Physicians were intensely uncomfortable withholding basic antiobiotucs when the patient caught a mild case of bacterial pneumonia; they delayed but wanted to ignore/override the advanced directive the woman has executed when fully competent. Jaworska constructs a beautiful argument (philosophically, logically) that is “accessible” to virtually anyone while being also intellectually sophisticated. It depends on people being motivated to help, or at least not to hurt (eg seize assets and steal them, OR work out psychopathology by degrading treatment the istient CAN still understand and experience suffering a result of). Our world is a nasty place.

      From all that I have been shown, how awake some of us are, there truly are no solutions on this planet. Satan is the ruler of these bodies described in the Bible as vile. We can keep them as sacred as possible because they housed the spirit of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit. If we pay attention, that spirit will guide us every day all day moment to moment. Jesus Christ. Is the absolute only complete solution for the end of this world.
      For anyone who has been questioning that, I urge you to let your heart speak. In a private time, a moment that feels right to you, get on your knees and recite the Lord‘s prayer. You will then be able to see what happens in your heart in your spirit if you are one of his chosen. God bless you all, I love you my brothers and sisters. 🙏🙌✝️❤️🆙🆙🤩🤗☺️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
