Information shared appreciated, Michael

I have much appreciated the information on Alzheimer's disease that you have shared on these boards through the years, Michael.  I have seen things get pretty heated at times on this site, and maybe sometimes moderation was needed, but I agree that usually a light touch is better.

    I also want to join in on thanking you, Michael. I appreciate your insight ---- I feel that often these boards focus on the very real needs of the caregivers, and I think it helps all of us to hear the perspective of the person who actually has dementia. Please keep on posting.
