Welcome. About this Site.
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.
The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.

yup, these people have lives they are living well, despite it all!
This is one of the Precious video for me, I really love this.
Great article.
This is great. I lived with my father for 11 years following my mothers death, nearly eight years of that time we lived with the diagnosis. He wanted a time line. His doctors response was that everyone was different and that he would not put him in a box as far as his abilities or life expectancy, just as he would not put his Autistic child in a box. I was so grateful for that. He passed nearly eight years after diagnosis. I so wish I knew what I know now about the desease having been his caregiver until his death. I was the
fortunate child, the one who had the time to know the man, not just Daddy.
