Alzheimer's?....over My Dead Body!!!!

This book is a survivor, stolen in a burglary in Jana's home, rewritten at least fifty times and survived a computer crash. It was saved on five different disks, but mysteriously somehow every one of those disks were ruined. Luckily, a few months prior to the computer crash, a man, George Burns, (maybe God?) pleaded with Jana to print out a copy for his good friend, whose mother was just diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Jana made a copy for herself and it was because of this, that the manuscript was scanned back into a computer and saved The story is about a woman, Nell Russell who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Her daughter Jona researched the disease and discovered some startling evidence. Her message throughout the book, "Don't take an Alzheimer's diagnosis without doing your own simple research." She is no expert on Alzheimer's but is convinced that there is an increase of diagnosis of this disease, when other illnesses have not been explored. The absence of common sense and stubborn denial are the most dangerous of mental problems she believes Americans face today. She believes there is such a disease, but a diagnosis given much to freely. It could very well be depression, an under diagnosed disease especially in the elder community. In this Western civilization where the elderly is disposed, rather than cared for, she asks that you take some time and read this book. In this baby-boomer era, it is soon that they, now getting into their 60's will be given the diagnosis of this disease from their doctors. It is the opinion of a layperson that is trying to get the attention of the general public to always investigate a diagnosis. Do not let a diagnosis be accepted becauseof behaviors or symptoms. Although a paid opinion from a doctor is important, it is too easy to be intimidated by medical professionals who some have high egos connected to their diagnosis.
