If Trump Is Reinstated

[Dana7360]

Not to stray off topic, but at what stage does the afflicted revert to childlike behavior?

A lifelong friend of mine has a brother with Alzheimers, and as a child, he liked to turn on all of the faucets in every room, then would go from room to room watching the water run.
He's started doing that again.

I'm not an expert with Alzheimers. Two people I loved had it. A third, my great grandmother, died of it too. This was in the mid 1960s when there was no diagnosis of Alzheimers. She was diagnosed as being crazy. She was taken to a mental hospital where she died a year later.

My grandmother and mother never reverted to childlike behavior. They reverted to the time they were mothers. For a while both thought they saw and heard their children as still being children. My grandmother would insist everyone be very quiet. She thought my aunt Gale was still a baby and everyone had to be quiet so Gale wouldn't be woken up from sleeping. Which was harmless.

Unlike my mom. She relived me being raped. Over and over again. She would see me being raped. She would tell me "little bit" is crying or "little bit" is being raped. I was born almost a month early and a premie because my mom was I a car accident when pregnant with me. She was rear ended. Her belly with me in it went directly into the steering wheel. I was barely 4lbs at birth and born dead. My nickname from my parents and grandparents was "little bit." I survived rape when I was 19 years old.

She would also see one of us kids, there are 4 of us, being killed. I would go to see her. She would run to me with her arms out crying. Say she just saw me or one of my siblings being murdered. She would hold me crying. I would do what I could to re assure her. If she saw one of the other kids murdered, I would pull out my phone and call them so she could talk to them to know they were safe and sound.

She believed my dad was still alive. None of us had the heart to tell her he wasn't. So not to hurt her, we just went along with her. Saying we just saw dad earlier that day or he was just here with her. I had to stop talking about me having breast cancer around her because each time she heard about it, to her, it was her first time hearing about it and she would become extremely upset and start to cry. Saying it was her fault. That she had given me the breast cancer gene.

When we first put her in the facility and we left her in her room, she pulled out her cell phone, called the police and told them she was kidnapped. Which caused the police to go to the facility, us kids being called back to the facility and we had to tell the police what was really going on. We also took her cell phone from her. I couldn't get angry with her. In fact, I chuckled. She did what I would probably have done in the same situation.

I'm sorry that you experienced the trauma that you did at 19 years of age, but you sound like a very tough survivor.
I've never known anyone with Alzheimer's. I've had some relatives who were afflicted with dementia as well as Parkinson's. I've been around professional boxers and football players for most of my life and have seen some very scary outcomes for some of them in the end.

My friends brother was diagnosed about 5 years ago and just turned 77, so I was curious if you had observed any similar behaviors in your experience.

Next week, I have the task of transporting him to a doctors appointment and I am not looking forward to it.

It won't happen.

I'd love it though.

Not because I love Donald Trump, it's just that my seething hatred for lefties, snowflakes, Democrats and the woke mob that I have will make it worthwhile.

They'll be jumping out of buildings, throwing themselves in front of lorry's and lying down on train tracks if it were to happen.

That's exactly what his Q Anon syncophants when he is hauled off to the big house or chiocks on a cheeseburger

Then you don't know anything about alzheimers.

I do. My grandmother and mother died of the disease. I watched it and helped them through it from beginning to their death.

It's a brain disease. Healthy cells in your brain are always dying and normally would normally die and sluff off. With alzheimers those dead cells don't naturally sluff off. They stay there causing plaque and scar tissue which builds up causing healthy brain tissue to die and add to the alzheimers process.

It's not just memory. One alzheimers specialist put to me is imagine a brain tumor. Alzheimers is basically the brain turning into one big tumor and it's dying. The whole brain is literally being killed. Not just memory is effected. All functions that the brain controls is effected. Another problem they have is sleeping. They can't sleep. My mom and grandmother would pace up and down the halls of the facility they were in for days. Then would collapse in exhaustion then be taken to the hospital where they would sleep for a day or so.

Since you admit you don't know much about the disease it's always a very good idea to do some research on it.

I don't need to do that research. I've watched it twice. I will watch it again. My oldest sister has the Alzheimers gene. The APOE E gene. There are 4 in the sequence. It's a gene that's passed from one generation to the next. The first born is usually guaranteed to get the gene. The next child or next 2 children won't get the gene if the births are one right after the other. If there's a few years gap between births usually that next child will have the gene.

What I described in the post you replied to is what my grandmother and mother endured. By the time they both were 75 they had to be locked in a facility for their own safety. Which is normal a typical for alzheimers patients.

Stages of Alzheimer's

Get information and resources for Alzheimer's and other dementias from the Alzheimer's Association.

www.alz.org

Early stage:
Common difficulties include:

• Coming up with the right word or name.
• Remembering names when introduced to new people.
• Having difficulty performing tasks in social or work settings.
• Forgetting material that was just read.
• Losing or misplacing a valuable object.
• Experiencing increased trouble with planning or organizing.

Middle stage:

Being forgetful of events or personal history.

• Feeling moody or withdrawn, especially in socially or mentally challenging situations.
• Being unable to recall information about themselves like their address or telephone number, and the high school or college they attended.
• Experiencing confusion about where they are or what day it is.
• Requiring help choosing proper clothing for the season or the occasion.
• Having trouble controlling their bladder and bowels.
• Experiencing changes in sleep patterns, such as sleeping during the day and becoming restless at night.
• Showing an increased tendency to wander and become lost.
• Demonstrating personality and behavioral changes, including suspiciousness and delusions or compulsive, repetitive behavior like hand-wringing or tissue shredding.

Last Stage:

At this stage, individuals may:

Require around-the-clock assistance with daily personal care.

• Lose awareness of recent experiences as well as of their surroundings.
• Experience changes in physical abilities, including walking, sitting and, eventually, swallowing
• Have difficulty communicating.
• Become vulnerable to infections, especially pneumonia.

I stand corrected, it's just that the person I knew who had it (or maybe Dementia) never exhibited any behavior except for memory loss before he passed away. Also, I am very sorry for all you went through but can we please get back on topic now?

When I replied to your post I first suggested your friend's brother was in the middle part of alzheimers. I thought he was in his early to mid 70. But I'm not an expert and didn't think it was my place to say what stage and age your friend's brother is. So I deleted that part of my original reply to you before I posted it.

Was he diagnosed with it formally? If so, did they do the spinal tap for the test or did they do a cheek swab for a DNA test?

Your friend's brother needs to be watched 24-7 for his own safety. Alzheimers patients wander at that stage.

My grandmother was found wandering her neighborhood with my grandfather's gun in her hands.

Some can get lost if they wander. When that happens they can die from exposure if not found quickly depending on where they are lost.

I read an article a few years ago about a man who had Alzheimers who wandered the neighborhood. He thought he was going to his own home but wasn't. He tried to walk into what he thought was his own home but wasn't. The owner thought it was an intruder to rob the house. So the owner shot and killed the man with Alzheimers.

Be very careful. Your friend's brother needs to be in a memory care facility. Start looking now. The best place is a group home but the good ones have waiting lists. My mom was on a waiting list for a year before an opening came up. She was in a large memory care facility for that year waiting for an opening.

So start now. Get your friend's brother on a list now. Do your research and find the best ones and get your friend's brother on their lists. Meanwhile find a memory care facility now. Get on their list too. The better places all have a waiting list.

Don't wait until your friend has no choice but to put his brother in a facility.

It's too late by then.

I'm not aware of all of the details of his original diagnosis but I do know that he's had the spinal procedure. The challenge is that my friend and I live in different cities nearly 100 miles apart, but he called me two weeks ago at his wits end, because he is his brothers only source of support, and has no other living relatives who can help, and my friend is exhausted.

I am going to be speaking to him later today, to get as much information as I can prior to next weeks appointment, because it sounds like he is in way over his head, and needs professional assistance.

First of all this is Donald Trump we're talking about here not Jesus Christ. Second of all he isn't dead, he was just robbed of this election.

 

[Mr Natural]

They’re the same thing to you people.

 

[Road Runner]

They’re the same thing to you people.

Wrong!! How dare you even suggest such a thing!?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Donald Trump pissed away his re-election chances by being so incredibly deviant and stupid, that he drummed up more votes against than for himself. He would literally have had better chances if he were struck deaf dumb and blind. Every time he opened his mouth, he created one vote for himself and two votes against.

The person you knew had dementia. One of my best friends mom has dementia. She's in a group home. Sometimes she knows my friend when she goes to see her mom. Sometimes she doesn't know who my friend is.

Dementia is very different from alzheimers.

I posted that because I'm sick and tired of read that Biden has alzheimers.

Those of us who know what alzheimers really is get very tired of reading that lie.

I finally had enough of it so I typed out the truth.

You came along and tried to dispute the truth I typed so I had to type more truth.

Sure we can get back to the typic at hand.

trump lost the election. All his claims of fraud and cheating are nothing but a load of BS.

I will never understand why people keep believing a proven liar who has people around him that make predictions that never happen.

Over and over again.

When will the trump people wake up? An intelligent and logical person would walk away from people who make predictions that never come true.

 

[Mr Natural]

Wrong!! How dare you even suggest such a thing!?

Both your saviors.

 

[Michael1985]

What in the fuck are you even babbling about? Conspiracy morons are annoying.

The fact that the only person who has ever really claimed Trump could be reinstated sells pillows for a living says everything one needs to know about how realistic the scenario would be.

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

I can tell you who ISN'T in a position to say it: an uneducated slob on a message board.

That includes you...faggot.

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

"convinced"? I suppose you are, those who are brainwashed by Trump, Faux Talking Heads and haven't an honest bone in their body post absurdities as you do. Or, you are in desperate need to get attention. In either case, I pity you.

Trump can suck my dick...and so can you...bitch.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

That includes you

No shit dummy. So i defer to the experts. You defer to facebook and youtube.

No shit dummy. So i defer to the experts. You defer to facebook and youtube.

You 'defer' to your mind, your illusions, fool. Stop jerkin my chain, idiot. You left side, and right side, punk asses, are tools for the system. Bitches, to the 'man'.

It'll be one of the happiest days of my life. Unfortunately, I just don't see it happening though.

OOHHH, I see it happening. And it will be one of the happiest days of my life, too. Restore America! MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
