I can only imagine that, seeing Ronald Reagan slowly deteroriate like that, its on her mind constantly - its what she thinks about, day after day. so when she does have an opportunity to make a public comment about something, she always links in the idea of "cures and treatments".

I agree I had a grandmother and mother who both developed advances stages of the disease before they died and it is terrible and take the personality of the person completely.

Nancy Reagan was totally devoted to Ronnie almost an obsession some may even say it was a mental condition so I can imagine it has coloured all thoughts during and since this terrible time.

For this reason alone I give her some slack plus also how much of what is released in her name actually is what she has said is IMHO debatable. As very few of the statements we have actually heard her say.
