Ann in August 2010 (part 2), diagnosed with PPA/FTD in 2005

Whenever I visit my mom, she's hard to find. She likes to sneak into other people's rooms and lay in their beds. She especially likes quiet rooms, and she prefers to be in the beds near the windows (farthest from the door). For awhile, she was taking other people's shoes, but I've bought her a new pair of house shoes and she seems to like them, because she wears the most of the time now. I bring her sugar when I visit, because that's what she enjoys the most. Here, she's enjoying a Fanta.

Thanks for posting this video--Your mother has a beautiful smile---I am only 45 years old--and have been told that I am going to come down with dementia--I am trying everything to slow it down--EGCG-green tea, Cinnamon, COQ10, Vitamin D--you name it I have tried it.. Anybody please e-mail me KAENLM@yahoo.com (why don't they have a cure for inflammation in the brain and this disease)?? My scalp itches alot--is it allergies or this disease?

your mom is so sweet. It seems like she is really trying to tell you something but she is having difficulty getting out the words. God bless her. My mom has dementia but I haven't seen her is a long time due to a sister whom won't let me. I am glad at least you can see your mom and speak with her.
