My husband first experienced confusion and loss of memory in March of 2000 while undergoing rehab for alcoholism. Being home seemed to help him until 2006 when he gradually began experiencing Alzheimer’s symptoms. He had four to five hours a day where he wants to get a "greyhound" to "go home." Also, he thinks I am his sister and believes he has rented a car (he hasn't driven in five to 10 years). His personal hygiene was in the tank — it was necessary for him to change two to three times a day. Without long-term insurance for his care, it was becoming stressful to care from him. this year our family doctor introduced and started him on Healthherbsclinic Alzheimer’s Disease Herbal Tincture, 6 months into treatment he improved dramatically. At the end of the full treatment course, the disease is totally under control. No case of Alzheimer’s, hallucination, forgetfulness, and other he’s strong again and able to go about daily activities. visit their official website, www. healthherbsclinic. com

ADAKC was suggested to me by a nurse when my Mom's memory and behavior was rapidly changing after the death of my Dad and she then came to live with my husband and I. Her changing behavior was foreign to me as I tried to adapt to this Alzheimer's World.
ADAKC gave me the tools and knowledge to be better equipped thru their monthly support groups and also a wide variety of Community Speakers associated with this disease.
ADAKC provided my mom with Day Care activities and meals which in turn I was given the time off to work and continue with my own daily obligations.
ADAKC is a Great Nonprofit !
