Good link. I skipped that link the other day... but I ordered some cacao powder. (I think the difference between cacao - the natural substance - and cocoa is that the latter is processed with some alkaloid.)

I worked for MG/Brigham for 20+ years.Many "civilians" don't know it but more research money (public and private) flows into Boston than into any other city on earth. It's not a coincidence that people fly to Boston from every point on the globe for health care.

Just FYI...all someone as to do at a major hospital *anywhere* in this country is to give enough $$$ and a wastebasket...a lounge...a department...or a wing can be named after him or her.

A case in point: the Dana Farber Cancer Institute is seen by many in medicine as being the finest cancer treatment (and research) center in the world. It started "life" as the Sidney Farber Cancer Institute,Dr Sidney Farber having been one its founding physicians. But then along came the Dana family,promising $$$ for a major expansion,and the rest is history.

Cacao powder is milled from unroasted beans so is more bitter and retains more nutrition. Cocoa powder is milled from roasted beans which reduces bitterness and nutrition.

“Watching the slow progression of the disease made me realize it’s only quality that will keep me around and not quantity if I were to succumb to it.”

Totally agree. Wasting away is not living. It’s hell for you and everyone around you.

Over the past two years IMAB has gone from a low of 10 to the 60’s today.

Just added it to my watch list.

I watched the geriatric Dr’s go in and out of that room, the consulting fees, the visits, the amount of money being taken from them, everything they worked for being bled dry, the bills for shit I never even heard of from people we have no idea who they are.

I will not be dependent on someone, not like that when I won’t even know who that someone is even if it’s my wife or daughter.

Handing everything I worked for for my family over to people who most I believe genuinely do care, but still a for-profit money machine meant to bleed you dry.
I just won’t put my family through what I had to and I’ve told them that before I even married my wife 32 years ago, and again after I raised our 3 children to understand it too.

When are they going to classify aspirin as a vaccine?

Me too. I have it on both sides of my family. The last thing I want is to be a burden on the ones I love.

We suspect my mom has it but it has been hell trying to get her to the doctor to get diagnosed. She was getting very hostile, vicious when we suggested it but now she has gotten worse in the past two weeks and she realizes something is wrong and has agreed to go.

She thinks crowds of people are living in her house when it is just her and my dad, any food we put in front of her she thinks it’s fake food and won’t eat it, and she at times thinks her parents are alive when they are not. Just a bunch of problems that are really freaking us out. I pray to God it is not Alzheimers but I don’t know what else it could be

> If clinical trials in humans show that the vaccine is safe and effective, this could represent a nontoxic treatment for people with Alzheimer’s

There’s a former senator from Delaware whose handlers might be interested in this.

“Should one get alzheimers, one’s inclination would be to just deal with it. “

You don’t “just deal with it”.
It’s a horrific disease and a terrible way to go .
If a treatment can prevent it or control the symptoms that’s a huge advance forward .

Yes, I'm aware of what alzheimer's does to people. Right now I have a very kind neighbor lady who is living that experience.

If you understand what I mean, no explanation is necessary. If you require an explanation, no explanation will suffice.

My 83 year old mother has been suffering from “Trump derangement syndrome”. She gets extremely agitated and hostile whenever any Trump related news comes on. She’s also forgetful and grasps for words, much like Brandon. There is a history of Alzheimer’s in both sides of my family. Compounded by diabetes. I can tell that her mind is worse, when she doesn’t manage her blood sugar well.
Hallucinations can also be a sign of Parkinson’s. Does your mom have tremors?

She must be perpetually agitated then as the media brings Trump into almost all stories.
