Amanda the family members with brain problems are all gone, I'm 78 and stubborn or hard to kill. I survived ovarian cancer and arterio-venous fistulas. I'm just hoping now for a treatment that helps. Rytary is supposed to be on the market this October my neuro tells me. Fingers crossed.

Would be kind of embarrassing to commit suicide the day before somebody found a cure...but I suspect most of us have thought about it. btw, I bet Alzheimers is an infection of the brain.
