Post by Steve...has tiger firmly by tailPeacefully, He remained a gentleman to the end. I had just refilled his 23mg aricept and don't want to flush them, if anyone here has ideas of what to do with them, email me privately.
Just dropped into this group after a long absence. Sorry to hear of
your loss. Best wishes to you and yours.

Sorry about your loss. I lost my mother to this terrible disease in
2006. My dad took care of her for ten years which was very difficult.
I don't mean to be negative and maybe all cases are not the same but I
don't feel any of the drugs out there do anything but prolong the
inevitable and cause the family a tremendous amount of stress. I have
been following Alzheimer's for 17 years and I don't see any real
progress. Same drugs. Research finds something promising and then you
never hear any more about it. It seems like they are not interested in
finding a cure. They are only interested in treating the symptoms. Not
acceptable to me. I would flush the aricept and remember your dad the
way he was before he got Alzheimers.
Sorry for the rant. May your Dad and my Mother rest in peace.
