@badlandsgirl , good for you both. I wonder if the doctors fully understand what the progression of dementia is really like for the patient and their caregivers. If so, I would think they would be glad to provide the option. The symptoms of dementia are so devastating……to me, it’s worth the risks. I would have encouraged my father to get the infusions. It was too late for him. I looked into the screening process and found this article. It’s very helpful, imo. I hope it’s allowed. If not, perhaps a mod will kindly remove it.

@celia16 Thank you for sharing the link above re: lequembe. My husband is actually on the 14th infusion, I agree; doing something about mild cognitive impairment or mild altzheimers is worth the risk, and my husband thinks so too.
thanks, again for sharing.
