to JK and all, i've been in clinical trials for alz. I've studied this and what I've learned - Partial list: I don't eat after 8:30 pm ESPECIALLY SWEETS! I TRY TO EAT LOTS OF Dark grapes, (from study) small amt of cherries, - berries.
Crosswords r already in the brain. I must learn something brand new. ( I gave Mom school kids papers- she solved problem math and literature grammar problems). She really focused. That was her homework.
I take Arecept already. Gave Mom Arecept and Namenda even after she hit donut hole. Got meds from Canada couple hundred $ cheaper - but still $$$ but, worth it. ( i refuse meds from India ) Yes, meds from Mexico.
I push myself to socialize and Excercise (and Mom) - During caregiving Mom -I would invite people to visit - emphasis on including Mom.
She HAD to go to pool - flirted w men. went to lunch - shopping. She HAD TO WALK 9 HOUSES DOWN, no matter her protesting. Regretfully, she passed at age 92. Wish she was still here. I still want to call her.
Also, I had her write emails to family. Had her in charge of GPS. "This thing is smarter than I am"! Miss her Cunning!
