Can you believe that I am posting within a month of my last post? I can’t. I have tried to get on several times but the thoughts just weren’t coming together. In the past week three more people I know have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. It is just everywhere. I am glad they are getting diagnosed and the help they need, but I wish it wasn’t happening so frequently. Next month is Brain Awareness month so you will probably be seeing more things about Brain diseases in the news.

I decided to go off one of my medicines. It was to help me with my concentration. It was working, but it was a hassle to get and the stress of getting it was too much for me to take anymore so I decided to go off of it. Now I find myself being more exhausted because it takes so much more of my mind to focus and concentrate. One trade off for another I guess.

Healthline.com has added my blog to their list of “Best Alzheimer’s Blog for 2018”. They sent a badge for me to insert into this blog, but I haven’t been able to make it work. I’ll keep trying.

On another note, my dear friend, Lisa Genova, who wrote Still Alice, has a new book out about ALS. The book is “With Every Note Played”. I urge you to read it — you won’t be sorry.
