We seem to be tumbling fast these days. My mom was recently diagnosed with alzheimers. I am afraid that she had the disease for a while before she was diagnosed. Maybe we were all in denial. Anyway, she is presently taking aricept. Also, she was recently prescribed lexapro in the morning to help with depression. At night, she is taking Respidril. Her disease seems to be progressing rapidly. Has anybody else had this experience of it progressing rapidly. She is 86 years old and in relatively good physical health.


Hi my mom is 89 and she is progressing very fast and this medicine does her no justice, she is up half the night and she focuses on her past sometimes or dreams of people moving things and coming in and out of our home at night she also gets violent sometimes and uses curse words with her physical moves it's really stressful sometimes but my love for her is stronger!Be Strong and Talk to the Lord He Will Advise The Week And The Strong!I Just Keep Praying!God Bless You ,your Mom And Family!
