Vascular Dementia

This topic was brought to my attention by a lady in the beauty shop. She was having a hard time coping. She expressed her hurt and pain to all that were sitting in her company. Her hurt was copying with her love one that has Vascular Dementia. This was her mother- in-law who is currently living with her and her husband. Another shocking thing that happen to me on Sunday was I met my granddaughter great-grandmother and she has Alzheimer's it is sad to see how our elderly has to stricken by these diseases.

If you have been following my blog you would have discovered several way's to cope, early prevention, side effect and many other ways to deal with these diseases. I would like to inform you about this particular one Vascular Dementia. Vascular Dementia is a degenerative cerebrovascular disease that leads to a progressive decline in memory and cognitive functioning. It occurs when the blood supply carry oxygen and nutrients to the brain is interrupted by a blocked or disease vascular system. Vascular dementia generally affects people between the ages of 60 and 75, and effects more men than women. The most common type of vascular dementia is multi-infarct dementia ( MID ), which is caused by a series of small strokes, or mini-strokes, that often go unnoticed and cause damage to the cortex of the brain - the area associated with learning, memory, and language.

I read your blog and I have been researching topics related to death or sickness. For some reason I have become a little obsess over the dying process. It stemmed from my children asking me the other day about death and when would I die? Death has always been a taboo topic that I have been always hesitant to think about. Sometimes I just get overly emotional thinking about it. I have thoughts of what will happen, how will it be, will I be breathing or other crazy notions. I have to thank the Lord that I have never been sick. I have experience other people dying and falling ill and it has been hard to imagine being diagnosis with a progressive or a fatal illness. When my sister died from sickle cell disease about three years ago, it was life changing and I carry her face in my memory. I hope that my death is quick, painless and I do not have to suffer. Thanks for the information.

My dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's diseases this neuron disease started 25 years before being revealed it was trigged the moment we started eating sugars including any and almost all carbs that break down to glycerol,and he was placed on the best  medical treatment approved by united states,(FDA) he has been taking Cholinesterase,Memantine to treat his memory lose,confusion and the problems with his thinking and reasoning.just to help slow the progression and manage the symptoms,as no cure exists I read through with interest. I once believed Alzheimer disease has no cure. Well it is true with English medicine, but not with herbal medicine. My Dad experience opened my eyes to the reality of a cure through herbs. My Father was a vibrant man before his encounter with Alzheimer. He was a scientist, hence his mental capability was never in doubt. In 2013, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer. The symptoms manifested through repeating conversation and gradually forgetting things. It became progressive from finding the right words during conversation, to significant confusion and forgetting details about himself. It was not a good experience, seeing your father whose brilliance had no match, totally became a shadow of himself. His doctors said the disease has no cure, just medications for treatment which had a lot of side effects were administered to him. Early 2016, while on the internet, I bumped into a story of Alzheimer, and I read about a cure through herbs with interest. I researched more to be sure it was not a hoax.  In my quest, Doctor James herbal mix medicine was mentioned in the testimony. I contacted him on his email that was provided  (drjamesherbalmix@gmail.com)   and I got his herbal mix medicine for my father.He told me that his herbal mix medicine will help my Dad to reduce the abnormal protein fold inside his neurons,and regulate the nutrients and molecules in his body system,and as well stop the progressive disorder that build up in damaging his brain cells,and help his weak cells  that causes  brain shrinking to function well,its a good herbal drinks for cell reparing.This doctor James is super great man and his herbal mix medicine is wonderful and works effectively as he said,with no side effects. It's been 4 years and my Dad is perfectly okay and back to his laboratory work even at old age. For your loved ones with Alzheimer or Dementia, take them off English medicine and use Dr. James herbal mix medicine for treatment. if you have any kinds of health challenges  or diseases such as..Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
