I hope this works. Our family is dealing with my father right now. WWII and Korea vet and hardly remembers what happened two minutes ago.

I pray this works.

Right with you. One hopes like the wonder drugs Streptomycin and Penicillin, the financial cost will not be prohibitive. It would pay government to factor in the eventual savings, should Alzheimers be halted. As a WW2 veteran, your father must have seen quite a lot of life and his memories would have been a mainstay.

I had an ingrowing abcess in the shoulder bone at 15 years of age in 1947. I was told that three years earlier, I would have faced an amputation. Forty years earlier, very likely my demise. Scotsman Fleming is my man of the century. Penicillen saved me. Plus surgery.

My respects and well wishes to your father.
