I work in Aged Care as an RN & I hope this puts me out of a job. What a gift. Time for the government to step up and create a program to get this in every Aged Care home in Australia

This aired in 2011. Where does this treatment stand 14 years later?

@montaguegray7486 1 year ago

given that its a death sentence anyway im not sure they need clinical trials for this treatment, im fairly certain all dementia sufferers and their families would risk it

My mother had Alzheimers and passed away about 10 years ago. It's a tragic, heartbreaking disease. Thank the good Lord there is hope for a cure. 🙏✝️

Charles LeRoy Giles, Jr passed away on June 4, 2018 about 7 years after this was filmed. He loved wearing Hawaiian shirts, as seen in the video, so in his memory guests were encouraged to wear one to his memorial service and celebration of life on Sunday, Aug. 12, at 2 p.m. at the Sonora Hills Community Room on Del Nero Drive in Sonora, California.

25 years of this horror with my Dad and then my Mom. I can only pray this will help and be affordable to people in the near future. This disease is torture to the patients and their care takers. It robs everything.

My mom had dementia and became very aggressive..it was heartbreaking because she was lovely, smart, hard working, greatest mom ever who didn’t deserve to end her life not knowing who we were anymore..saddest disease ever…
