Terrible writing. The wife and daughter seem interchangeable in this recounting.

So does he or does he not remember her?

“He just stopped remembering who I was in all ways. Whether it was in person or by phone, he had no idea I was his daughter. I think it’s because he didn’t see me as much because I got married so young and I moved away,” Suzi, who shares daughters Kathaleen, Suzanne, and Julie with Hanna, said.

Now, the TV personality apparently only knows his wife, his dog Brassy and sometimes his eldest daughter Kathaleen.

Like many Alzheimer’s patients, recognition comes and goes and eventually just stops entirely.

My grandfather who raised me from 5 to 14 years old, went rather quickly, in just a couple of months he didn’t even recognize me............

If we’ve learned anything about big pharma, it’s that they’re probably sitting on a $2 pill that could cure it. At least in the early stages.

I remember watching him on the Johnny Carson show decades ago.

One of my favorite streaming channels is Jack Hanna

So I’ve been following his decline recently

Sad. He brought the animal kingdom into our living room

So sad. Hanna was admirable. Sad about your grandfather too.

A dear friend of mine was just diagnosed with some cellular irregularity in her brain that leads to Alzheimers. Our local Natural Grocer has classes on what to do to slow down progress of disease. Also, the new bestselling book, OUTLIVE: The Science and Art of Longevity, has a chapter on Alzheimers and how to fight it off as long as possible. If you feel at risk, buy the book or get from your library.

I have read that cutting out ALL wheat and grains including rice will slow it down considerably....................

Interesting. Will tell my friend.

I gave up wheat years ago, but for a different reason. Dr. Wm Davis’s book, Wheat Belly, stated that wheat eating can cause high LDL. Very complicated equation leads to that conclusion. I stopped eating wheat and within 60 days, my LDL dropped 40 points, no statins for me. I found a terrific bread at Natural Grocer made entirely of seeds of various kinds. Delish. They can’t keep it on the shelves.
