Hello:
Thank you for being here and giving advice and support.
I’m anticipating and preparing for an appointment at the VA on Thursday. I have so much to understand and decide. I’ll take a breath and go one step at a time. When I can I will share more. Thanks.

I'm not a scientist. My opinion of this "treatment" for dementia is that it doesn't really work for depression, which it was tried on, so now they're trying to shoehorn people with other diseases into this.
If you expect absolutely nothing from this, you probably won't be disappointed. If it requires an extraordinary amount of your time and multiple appointments, I'd probably pass, as the benefits will likely not outweigh the hassle of taking him.0 -
Welcome "by myself" were are all here. Feel free to rant, ask for help and read lots of post that will be sure to help you on this journey. You're not alone.0
