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.

this is so absolutely true. I found that you can never outgive because the more you give the more you get back in the sense of joy and fulfillment. It almost doesn’t seem fair.
My mom taught me that expecting return is not giving. Giving is extending helpful acts with absolutely nothing in return. The result of that has been life long relationships and support…. a wonderful circle of giving. Simple.
