Thought for today

There is more money being spent on breast
implants and Viagra than on Alzheimer's research.

This means that by 2020, there should
be a large elderly population with
perky boobs and huge erections and
absolutely no recollection of what to do
with them.

being spent on the aforementioned than on cancer, aids and heart& lung disease combined, so we may not live long enought to get to that point!

Hey Sedona;
I probably wouldn't have responded to your post except it hit very close to home.

My wife has Alzheimers, early stage, but as you may know there is no good long term outcome. It is a terrible disease.

I agree with your premise. It is really not fair where medical research funds are spent.

Alzheimers is becoming so prevalent in our elderly, and not so elderly, that it's almost an epidemic.
There are many different variations of dementia that can be traced in some form to Alzheimers.

Anyway, just wanted to voice an opinion.

Just my opinion...
B

spend some quality time.  Have some lunch or dinner. Perhaps have a drink ot two, do some dancing, maybe even a little Kareoke(sp). How bout a harbor cruise, then get a suite overlooking the bay, I'll take a little blue pill and, and , and----Oh shit, are you the Sedona from San Diego. Been there Done that--I think I'll donate to Alzheimers Reasearch.

BTW-She has no implants and I have no blue pill

Yet another reason not to vote for Mr. Bush.  

Thanks to him, the promising stemcell research program has
been virtually halted.

..good one, Sedona!

Sedona,
Your assumption is that Alzheimers will kick in for all.  I hope to be still doing this in 2020 and be able to remember the experiences as well.  LOL
