Alzheimer’s disease can feel very lonely at times. At Penn, breakthrough clinical trials are making huge strides, and they won’t stop until they cure this disease. Every day at Penn, our neurosurgeons, neurologists, and psychiatrists work side-by-side to help patients break through the darkness of their disease.

From fighting the isolation of Alzheimer’s, to finding new approaches to treat MS and epilepsy, to developing cutting-edge treatments for brain and spine disorders, the breakthroughs we’re making are lighting the way for our patients today.

I am a caregiver for my 86 year old husband in Pennsylvania. It is a learning experience for me and these videos help a lot.

I wish Alzheimer's/Dementia never existed. My auntie has it, and i feel like my grandmother is starting to get it.. But it is too early to tell for her

Pet peeve of mine. When people say “all timers”. Like have you ever sat down and thought about what you’re saying?? They hear “old timers” and “Alzheimer’s” and they combine them into the most idiotic thing ever. All timers… doesn’t even make sense.

I was diagnosed a bit more than 2 years ago. It is a nightmare we can’t wake up from

Music too loud to the point of being annoying. Can’t hear them talk at times.

Please look into Methylene Blue if this is your diagnosis. We reversed my mom’s Alzheimer’s symptoms using Methylene Blue! This brings hope! There is a show on it posted at The Natural Health Researcher YouTube channel.
