Just was browsing about usenet, came upon the support group
for Alzheimer's.
These are mostly the caretakers.
There are appaRently many more symptoms than the "loss of
memory".
Common is a deal, where they accuse you of being an
"impostor of yourself", and having a "similar" "house" put
on their lot, in place of their "real one".
Also, is a syndrome where they "poop" and "hide it".
These "caretakers" need support. And we should read that
stuff to get an idea of what might happen to us or our loved
ones.
To be prepared, at least "mentally..."
I sympathize with those who need Rx's, there...
I had to go to Mexico today , to get some cream in a tube.
What does the the medicaL COMMUNITY THINK i AM GOING TO DO
WITH IT?
Do i really need extensive and expensive testing to see if I
need it?
I have been using it for 29 years. One tube lasts me 2-4
years, too.
Can in good conscience I waste anyone's time with this cr-p?
The cream costs $6.

Where IS the LAND OF THE FREE and the home of the BRAVE
anyway?
