Bailie - Thankyou For The Excellent Presentation - I think I am about A stage 4 and moving along --Thankyou - God Bless You
Incredibly helpful thank you. Clearly & simply put.
Right now my mom is asking for things like food, coffee, water, wanting to help us, and other things! 4 weeks ago she had a mild case of covid, and didn't want food, and would only eat certain things. She would only eat very little. Now she eats more, but some foods she will not eat at all. It's very sad to see my mom go through this! She repeats herself over, and over, and over etc. until it's bed time. Then she is quiet!
David, I know this is so hard. You are not alone. We are here and praying for you and your mom ❤️
So, it would be good to hear talk about the probable, possible, as well as likely causes of dementia - such as glyphosate poisoning, all chemical insecticides, “organophosphate” presence in our world due to contamination through use of these horrifying chemicals. This truthful education could hopefully help people use the brains they have left to stop being SO ignorant as to buy these chemicals and use them.
Very good recommendation! I will see what we can do!
Prescription drugs. Healthy people are useless to the medical machine.
How about the decreasing sperm count in men and the shocking rise in autistic children? I think perhaps in 100 years, people may look back in horror at our time due to all the toxic elements we casually lived around.
Nice summary. I have Lewy Bodies and it is comforting to know where I roughly am in the disease.
Hang in there...
Teddy...im so sorry to hear that...sending love to you
Praying for you; many of us are now that we’ve seen your post❤️
Teddy, I am so glad the video brought you comfort. Prayers for you ❤️
I just tell people when I suspect they notice that I have hardcore insomnia.
How does a doctor know you have it? What tells them it is dementia and not Alzheimer disease.
DeeAnn, they typically diagnose based off symptoms. Alzheimer disease is a type of dementia. Just like breast cancer is a type of cancer. If the diagnosis is dementia then they are just not specifying a type.
The way they tell is that each is related to degradation of different parts of the brain. MRI and other imagery shows losses in different areas. Also, neuro psych testing includes different challenges that set apart the causes. Finally, Alzheimer has more medical tests that identify it.
@@gregorypasternack8337 Thank you for your answer. An MRI can absolutely show shrinkage and give information about the areas of the brain that are being impaired causing symptoms. Unfortunately, more times than not physicians are just labeling based off of symptoms and a simple cognitive test unless further testing is requested by the individual or their loved one. What is typically seen in many cases is a diagnosis of dementia with or without behavior disturbances. Hopefully one day in depth testing will be the norm for all types of dementia. We are slowly getting closer!
Thank you. This was helpful.
Obviously these Stages would be modified if the person started at baseline with ASD and/or concussion.
Absolutely
Could you post a video on voting in a LTC facility please?
Very informative! The Audio could be better, though 🙂
Thanks Nicole for the feedback! One of my first videos! Improvements have been made! ❤️
@@BailieHillman oh ok 😊 it was also the first video I watched of yours as it popped up today on my feed! I’ll check out some more 🙂!
My grandma is most likely in stage 4/5 now as she is pissed off that we have taken her car but she is still able to do bills, cook, shop, dress, bath, ect
You are lucky for now! My mom asks for food ALL DAY even after eating! Are you ready for that? My mom is doing it right now. The only time she stops is when it's bed time!
@@davidregan9872 this is not my family's first time with this disease as my great grammy passed of it back on April 12 2005 at age 87 years 1 month and 26 days...
@@amandaallen9460 Thanks Amanda! Sorry for your loss! My grandma had it also! My mom is 84, and I hope she gets a little better. HOPE!!!
@@davidregan9872 right...hope!!!
I am trying to train a senior. She can't retain very simple things and will ask the same question every five to fifteen minutes. I am concerned about her.
Cathy, there is a technique called spaced retrieval that may help. I will try and do a video on it soon to help explain how to decrease the question asking. Can you give me some examples of questions she asks.
So what if the said patient/family member is in active opioid addiction could the stages and symptoms be more severe and staggered among stages
Tammy, yes the symptoms may vary with opioid use. Opioid users are at a higher risk of cognitive decline. They may also be suffering from “medication fog.”
@@BailieHillman thanks for a response I appreciate your time
When they can’t swallow is that end stage?
So Joe is about stage 5 ?
If there were stages of moral degradation and corruption, both Trump and DeSantis would be a 10. I cannot believe that the channel owner gave you a heart for such a childish remark.
Don’t just say paranoia…explain and give examples.
My mother -in -law went many times to her lawyer to make sure her son didn't sell her condo.
I am not willing to be my spouse’s caregiver at this point. He is fine so far, but I want to shriek outloud at what is ahead. Why is it a given that the spouse is the automatic caregiver. I’ve had no training in this area. I will not clean up poop. I do not cook worth a damn.
Woman do you remember ? In sickness or in health. oh boy i wouldn't want to be your spouse. What about if you were the one who is sick.?
You sound so selfish.
Why did you marry him in the first place? Did you marry for what the relationship could give YOU? You honestly do not have enough love, compassion and kindness in your heart to care for someone you committed to love in sickness and health? Wow. Do him a favor and divorce him so he can find someone else with a maturity to care for him. Lady, you just failed a major test in life.
Women u r crazy. Remember God can give u the same n see who will takecare of u.
Why did you get married? What do you think marriage is? Are you a narcissist?
