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 picture is a thousand words. Holding my Mom’s hand during her transition was the most precious moments for both her and me. However, when my hands were cold, she told me to “go away – cold”. I always made sure to wear gloves without fingers. She still had the human touch. Miss her so much.
Love the quote and the picture.
