Alzheimer Syndrome
Submitted by nasha on Tue, 2010-08-24 08:33. People in My LifeI don't know where to start. i takes couple minutes to think about it.
My mom,60yrs old, in the last 3yrs, we recognized there is something wrong with her. She had resign from her last job, she was thinking she was unable to finished her job. in fact, she was a reliable, smart and loyal person.
At first, she thought, she was old enough, so she couldn't make a working plans, dealing with computer and so on. Then she started to forget about Day / dates. Then more complex, she forgot where on the earth she put her eyeglasses, in fact it was fit in her eyes.
day by day, month by month, year by year...it becomes more complex. she even didn't remember the last time she ate salad in pizza hut, she said its been years i never eat salad, in fact 3months ago, she ate it. Then she forgot that in the morning she and i picked my nephew, and she played with him, and she felt asleep. 3 hours later, she woke up and found her grandson in the kitchen, she said, " wow...ruben is here. i miss u dear. are you coming alone?". it seems like she just met her grandson.

Amanda's Story
Submitted by bdoney on Wed, 2008-08-20 10:56. People in My LifeThis entry is about my friend Amanda Allcox. She is an absolutely amazing person, she has over come so much and it’s not fair that she struggles with things day to day, at some point shouldn’t things get easier? I just wanted to take this chance to tell everyone her story. Amanda is a 27-year-old single mother of 2. I say single because in all aspects she is. She has a boyfriend who is the father of her youngest but she may as well be single, and a single mother of 3 if you add his son from a previous marriage into the mix.
I met Amanda about a year ago, but didn’t really get to know her until last December when she moved in with me. At the time I was dating her ex boyfriend and father of her first son. I had gone months listening to how horrible she was and how she was a drug addict and a terrible mother, and it wasn’t until I got to know her and hear her story that I realized that none of it was true.
Inspiring story of a phenomenal woman
Submitted by dianeconnor on Mon, 2008-03-10 11:16. People in My LifeDear Editor:
I would like to share with you the biography of a phenomenal woman whom I know dearly. She is a loving wife and mother, has over 10 years expertise as a senior scientist for medical research, CEO and founder of Sisters Childcare Center, LLC and non-profit organization of Community 1ST (both located in Philadelphia, PA) and she is my best friend. I feel she is phenomenal because throughout her life she's been challenged with obstacles and tragedies that nearly killed her but the Lord saw fit to allow her to overcome those obstacles and use her experiences as an inspiration to those who'll soon hear her story.
Conquering the World
Submitted by JavaQueen2000 on Sun, 2007-11-18 12:07. People in My LifeMy son was misdiagnosed at age 5 by Scottish Rite Hospital with severe ADHD. For over 9 years we struggled with over 41 medications to help him to cope with ADHD and his depression. He was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome at 14. When he told me about his suicide plan I quit work, home schooled him for 18 months, got him off all of the medication and started to help him to see successes. He was very big for his age (tall and heavy) and constantly picked on and bullied. With help from a psychiatrist , psychologist , a disability service dog named Rosie ( a Rhodesian Ridgeback) and everyone I could wrangle in; he started to see himself as a unique person. His anger started to dwindle and we had fewer outbursts. He started to become sad that he didn't have friends so I had him research schools and we found Walden Prep. He enrolled and was in class with a 5 to one ratio with teachers who could identify with him. Socially, he tested at 12 and I was told that was all I could expect. As a teacher I refused to believe that I could not help him. I recently read a book called "The complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome" by Tony Attwood. It has helped me to see the bigger picture.
