Good Day everyone,
Have you looked at Alzheimer's Weekly yet? This site is full of information from Alzheimer's introduction to warning signs and planning for the future. This site has six tabs with the names: Home-News-Boards-Basics-Sites and Search. When you hit a tab it scrolls down with move tabs on various points of interest. It also has Ask Ann and Ask Nurse Dina. This site has a board with discussions between people with Alzheimer's. I was reading about Aricept and the side effects. Nurse Dina wrote, she heard from patients and other readers that Aricept sometimes creates temporary side effects that can be disturbing. Most of the time it was behavioral. This hits home with me as when I put dad on Aricept he became more combative so I discontinued it.

This site was created to serve the Alzheimer's community, wheather you are living with Alzheimer's, A caregiver, or just concerned with prevention or early testing. I highly recomend this site to any one dealing dealing with this disease.

The only way to retain love is to give it away, by Elbert Green Hubbard.
Thank you,
Marie
