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 was only 21 when my step-dad (I was truly lucky to have two fathers while I grew into an adult) died due to the disease and the complications. 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.

[@erniemitch9922]

@@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. 😂

[@erniemitch9922]

@@friedasenior2805 He would ask where his dead brother and parents were and we would say they are at the store or visiting his aunt. Think about how devastating it is to learn a family member or friend died. Imagine being told that for the first time again and again. He may forget the facts but the sadness stays and he wouldn't understand why he was so upset so there is no comforting them. 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.

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.

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.

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.

It’s a very good idea to have a clear criteria like this. Otherwise things can get very bad for both the patient and the family and there can be more guilty feelings.

[@LynnFo]

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.

[@marycull3607]

@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.

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.

It's a challenge due to the lack of cooperation, attitude, aggressiveness, and not wanting to hear a lot of information.

That sounds just like my mother! I’m so glad I found a place where people know what I am experiencing. Information can certainly cause her to become agitated. I find myself being careful how I approach her with it, in the same ways you mentioned. She also frequently says, “You never told me. I didn’t know,” and, “I’ve never heard that before in my life,” which would be funny if it wasn’t so frustrating after the 300th explanation, and when the last time was hours ago. Thank you for sharing your experience! I like your comparison to an adolescent with the attitude and, in my mom’s case, knowing everything, despite all evidence to the contrary.

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

Keep in mind, same with alcoholism. Abuse constantly damages the brain. This can be compensated for a long time, but suddenly it's over. No more compensation available. One day a celebrity gives a nice and deep interview, only two or three binge drinkings later and the same person has irreversible turned into vegetables. Don't smoke, don't drink.

My Dad never drank, never smoked, was an avid bicyclist and hiker, ate a healthy diet, was not overweight, but he got dementia nonetheless. 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.

[@FarFromZero]

@@mariekatherine5238 Did you ever heard about statistics? Another try. When handling toxic substances there is a "LD50" dose. This means, if an average person takes the LD50 dose there is a 50% chance that this person will die because of the poison. So, I could have a brother and a sister and both took the LD50 dose and both survived (25% chance). Is it therefor a good idea to take the LD50 dose? The "my grandpa" and "my uncle" stories about heavy drinking and smoking without any consequences is, sorry for that, the most stupid argument s.o. can present. Smoking kills you, dear. Heavy drinking kills you too. Yes, I'm arrogant - and I don't care. Enjoy your life.

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.

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.

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.

[@Sashazur]

Not everyone experiences the disease the same way. Some progress through different stages faster or slower, some experience different kinds of cognitive problems to a greater or lesser degree.

[@joefromravenna]

@@Sashazur probably because i think multiple diseases might exhibit plaque accumulations. I think there might be 2 or 3 Alzheimer’s diseases classified as one disease.

@@katinka946 Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, she just hit 90 and I doubt a slow down at this point. She functions amazingly well for someone of her age and mental state.

For example, she had a rash on her face, and kept appearing at ER, forgetting that she had just been there. She literally revisited the ER at least 5 times in a row, forgetting she had just been there.
