MY STORY REVISITED #146-HOPE VS NO HOPE AT ALL
ive thought a lot about alzheimers disease recently
two days ago was the 9th anniversary of my younger brothers death in the final stages of alzheimers
i think of the last time i saw him in his final stage
a month later he would die
finally he was at peace
i want my family to let me go when i reach that stage
yesterday my interview below i did with the being patient website and podcast was reposted on facebook
so this morning i went and clicked on the link to youtube and watched the interview again
i only teared up a few times
i realized that there is a lot of information in that interview that family and friends and patients need to know
i suggest if you are in the alzheimers world as one of those folks that you watch this interview
i am speaking as a family member as a family doctor and as a patient
the trifecta i call it
hopefully you learn something you can use in your alzheimers life by watching this video from my interview with being patient
beingpatient.com is a good alzheimers website to be following to help keep you abreast of whats happening in the alzheimer world
next week i go in for my #20 real drug biogen aduhelm infusion at ucla
i got 18 placebos at the beginning of the study
my next mri is in september
the title of the blog today is a statement i made about the aduhelm or aducanumab infusions
thats what it gives those of us with the diagnosis
hope vs no hope at all
the organicgreen doctor
welcome to the organic green doctor blog
i am a family physician who was diagnosed with
early mild cognitive impairment(mci) amnestic type on december 21, 2010
this is a precursor to alzheimers disease
because of this diagnosis i have opted to stop practicing medicine
this blog will be about my journey with this disease
please feel free to follow me along this path
i will continue blogging on organic gardening, green living,
solar power, rainwater collection, and healthy living
