HEALTH INTERESTS:

my uncle bob has lewy-bodied allzheimers,  life expendcity(sp?) 10 years. I believe he started this awful thing in 1995 so,  he is still kicking but,  now the parkinson's is what will probably put the end to him.

DRUGS I AM TAKING:

he was on aricept and namenda,  the namenda wasn't released in time to help u. bob alot but,  I noticed a big change for a few months.

ABOUT ME:

I am now 50, and for the last 8 years of my life was like going through a divorce....I had a little help in the beginning, about a year. Then it was on me and my husband 100%. We had to rent their home out, after alot of fixing. Then my marriage went downhill fast as my husband got very little attention from me.....In 2004, the parkinson's made it so U. Bob couldn't walk far and he would fall. His doctor ordered me to put him in a nursing home. Then I felt as if I'd been fired from my job....lost my way for awhile.
