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.

So true. My wife, Sue, who suffered with early on-set Alzheimer's (passed in July 2015 – age 55) responded to music when nothing else. We played music all the time. It brought her peace and hopefully the comfort of better times.
RIP Sue – I love you,
Tom
