The Pursuit of Happiness with Alzheimer’s Year Three available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This is my third book in a series of diary type entries about the progress of my Alzheimer’s disease since December 2017 when it was first diagnosed. I have changed my opinions about doing better with nostrums and vitamins. There is no cure. One reason I changed my mind is that I have done so well during the third year. I do believe Namzaric, getting cholesterol and blood pressure low with medicine is key to preventing stroke and a sudden decline in mentation. I published my lab results which I usually get every three months. My next book will be titled: Alzheimer’s is Inexorable. Year Four. Let’s see if my title is premature.

This is the fourth book about my life with Alzheimer’s. I have written these books to encourage people get the diagnosis made early in the course of the disease. My first neurologist asked me, "What difference does it make?” My diagnosis was made in December 2017, and I think it made all the difference in the world. In the year 1 book, I wrote about getting the diagnosis. In the year 2 book, I wrote about traveling with Alzheimer’s. In the year 3 book, I write about making a transition to more alternate medicine. The present year, the fourth book, I write about maintaining a good cognitive state without much deterioration. I believe each year is different and much more than just a diary. As a physician, I showed my long journey in educating myself and opening myself to new ideas. I hope this gives people with the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s hope and shows them different possibilities of approaching their diagnosis. Next, I will write year 5 of my saga.

Download and read online ebook In Pursuit of Memory write by Joseph Jebelli. This book was released on 2017-10-31. In Pursuit of Memory available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. For readers of Atul Gawande, Siddhartha Mukherjee, and Henry Marsh, a riveting, gorgeously written biography of one of history's most fascinating and confounding diseases -- Alzheimer's -- from its discovery more than 100 years ago to today's race towards a cure. Alzheimer's is the great global epidemic of our time, affecting millions worldwide -- there are more than 5 million people diagnosed in the US alone. And as our population ages, scientists are working against the clock to find a cure. Neuroscientist Joseph Jebelli is among them. His beloved grandfather had Alzheimer's and now he's written the book he needed then -- a very human history of this frightening disease. But In Pursuit of Memory is also a thrilling scientific detective story that takes you behind the headlines. Jebelli's quest takes us from nineteenth-century Germany and post-war England, to the jungles of Papua New Guinea and the technological proving grounds of Japan; through America, India, China, Iceland, Sweden, and Colombia. Its heroes are scientists from around the world -- many of whom he's worked with -- and the brave patients and families who have changed the way that researchers think about the disease. This compelling insider's account shows vividly why Jebelli feels so hopeful about a cure, but also why our best defense in the meantime is to understand the disease. In Pursuit of Memory is a clever, moving, eye-opening guide to the threat one in three of us faces now.

Download and read online ebook Dementia and Literature write by Tess Maginess. This book was released on 2017-08-09. Dementia and Literature available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Dementia is an urgent global concern, often termed a widespread ‘problem’, ‘tragedy’ or ‘burden’ and a subject best addressed by health and social policy and practice. However, creative writers can offer powerful and imaginative insights into the experience of dementia across cultures and over time. This cross-disciplinary volume explores how engaging with dementia through its myriad literary representations can help to deepen and humanise attitudes to people living with the condition. Offering and interrogating a wide array of perspectives about how dementia might be ‘imagined’, this book allows us to see how different ways of being can inflect one another. By drawing on the ‘lived’ experience of the individual unique person and their loved ones, literature can contribute to a deeper and more compassionate and more liberating attitude to a phenomenon that is both natural and unnatural. Novels, plays and stories reveal a rich panoply of responses ranging from the tragic to the comic, allowing us to understand that people with dementia often offer us models of humour, courage and resilience, and carers can also embody a range of responses from rigidity to compassion. Dementia and Literature problematises the subject of dementia, encouraging us all to question our own hegemonies critically and creatively. Drawing on literary studies, cultural studies, education, clinical psychology, psychiatry, nursing and gerontology, this book is a fascinating contribution to the emerging area of the medical and health humanities. The book will be of interest to those living with dementia and their caregivers as well as to the academic community and policy makers.
