@ drink dont really mix with aluminium, Barium, strontium, and all the other chemicals their spraying on everyone off us, all part of agenda 21 depopulation, youtube ( rise up with risey) and ( samual hofman). There'll let you know what the government's are covering up, ive found my own cure for my alzheimer's dementia, aka ( chementia ). I think we're all going together to be honest with you, pole shift/reversal in 4 to 7 years.
@@dennisglass412 Buddy, I'm sure you mean well, but you've bought into some serious bullshit. I'm willing to bet you also believe that the moon landings were fake, Elvis is alive and the earth is flat. Don't just believe whatever conspiracy theory is hip. If you want to stave off Alzheimer's disease, exercise and eat cruciferous vegetables especially broccoli sprouts. Take your vitamins. Exercise your brain by reading new materials and learning new skills. And for the love of God, get enough sleep.
Dennis Glass That is seriously not happening! It just isn't. You guys who believe in all that shit really need to snap out of it and revisit all of the things you believe are happening. None of the stuff you say is going to happen in the next 4-7 years but when it doesn't, you will simply modify the conspiracy theory instead of just realizing you were wrong and breathe a sigh of relief. For some inexplicable reason, you guys actually want to hold onto these outrageous beliefs. You seriously have a thought disorder and the internet has made it contagious. Conspiracy theorists are so fill of rage at stuff that isn't even real. It's actually sad to watch but you guys are choosing to live in your false reality with your refusal to admit you could actually be wrong. It's really bizarre.
Good man. I too have dementia, (Frontotemporal) and my life span is somewhere between one to five years. Fortunately, when I was 16 I went on a backpacking trip though Europe, which was one of the, if not the best times of my life. Now that I've been diagnosed with dementia, I am going to throw off my normal penny - pinching ways and have as much fun, and see as many of my friends as possible. I implore anyone else who is reading this and has dementia to do the best and most enjoyable thing that you can while you have the time. Though it is hard, TRY not to feel sorry for yourself, as you need to use such time as you have profitably. God bless you all.
Jim Gallagher I’m so sorry to hear this. Prayers go out to you and stay strong. I love that idea of enjoying your life while you can on this earth. DO IT!
Thank you for your update. Very glad he’s still good. Such a beautiful young man. May the Lord see his tears and his young life of sorrows and give him many, many years of wonderful healthy mind, body and soul.
My dad retired from the Army in 2010. In 2016, he developed dementia. In 2021, Covid got him and he passed. I remember taking care of my dad and he would sometime forget who I am. The last words he told me was “I will always be proud of you and will always love you, even when I forget who you are.” When my father passed, I made a oath to help those with Alzheimer and dementia.
I just lost a loved one three weeks ago after 10 years of only me taking care of her. My heart now, goes out to those who are currently struggling with this atrocious disease and to the hero caregivers!
Have you heard about DIPG. Cancer is horrible and so is Alzheimer, my grandma has it. Both are cruel but to say youre grateful for cancer... please don't.
I know Chris and he's doing well, still in the very early stages living a normal life with dementia, and his brother is still in a care home, but alive in the later stages of the disease
I think 2 people on the comment section typed that he passed They tyed RIP If he is still alive y in the word would they type that? Are they wishing him death or what?
@@thegracetofollow4194 I’m not sure what that’s about but I spoke to him just before Christmas and he’s doing amazing still living well in the early stages like he’s done for the past 6/7 years with dementia
Can we still sponsor him? This breaks me down. At Stanford and Harvard they have had a lot of success with people who have the gene getting a lot better I signed my older friend up cause I’m sure she has it as did 5 generations before her. I hope he can come here and get into the program because the people it’s helped are like night and day. It’s a daily regimen but it revives the youthful part of being alive
My father had Alzheimer's at the age of 65 ... We had gone through very rough time... He was an active man... He was a teacher as well as a good singer and a writer... He forgot every thing... He died at the age of 68 ... Even today we feel that pain
I feel so sad that this entire family just gets wiped out by this disease. My grandma recently got diagnosed, which destroyed me. I cant even imagine everybody you love having it
My mother died recently of alzheimer's and I cared for her at home until her passing. I feel deeply for everyone who has this disease and for those that support them.
I'm so sorry to hear that. My mom went through that too. Did you called 911 immediately and have her sent to the hospital to see if they can save her life from Alzheimer's? I'm not sure if there are any survivors.
Some of us SEARCH for things to gripe and complain about. Here's pain, anguish and distress beyond measure. This is 2024: whether Chris is still here or not, what remarkable courage he displayed!!! Blessings of serenity on those who are afflicted with this dreaded disease, and patient endurance for caregivers❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sadly most people have no idea what they have until they don't have it anymore.... "The healthy want many, many things. The sick only want one thing." 😢 No amount of money can buy health back.
I just lost 2 sister 86&84 with this disease both in October 2020 and have a 72 year old sister in a bad state .I myself an 62 and can see myself in early stage it's so sad especially for this young lad
Have you guys got vaccinated for anything in the past? That would explain it. Or living in areas where heavy chemtrails are common? Aluminium toxicity is the main reason. You find it in vaccines and chemtrails both. Soon everyone on the planet will be suffering from Alzheimers and a million other things that affect the brain. It is done by design....
@@justhermit5306 hey man youre the one boasting about how vaccines cause alzheimers in youtube comments, idk who told you that or what 5 minute google search you did but you are nonethanless still incredibly stupid
@@zeno9794 You are projecting. You know shit about anything (your playlists proves it) and you think i am the same. I know about aluminum toxicity causing a lot of brain damage (including yours) for about 30 years. And nope, Google search and MSM is bullshit. You are already zombified from childhood vaccinations. No surprise...
Watched my mum get diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s when I was 18, I’m 20 now and she doesn’t know who I am, nor can I have a conversation with her. It’s an extremely heartbreaking disease but I am blessed I’ve got siblings and we look after each other very well. My heart seriously goes out to anyone who has to experience a loved one go through this, it’s not easy at all. That same person prior to the disease is still inside that heart of theirs, it’s just a shame what this disease does to the brain. You begin to appreciate even getting a smile out of them. Stay strong guys 💛
I love that he's able to travel and cross those places (including my hometown) off his list of places to see. I lost my foster Mom to Alzheimers. It's a terrible disease. To have it so young is heartbreaking.
This is heartbreaking. I can't even imagine what this man is going through. It must be terrifying knowing that you have a genetic ticking time bomb inside you and wondering when it will go off.
My grandma got Alzheimer’s at 41 also early onset. Just terrible! It took her life in her mid 50s. So much love for this young man and family and loved ones.
Anyone know how Chris is now? I care for my father who has mid stages of Alzheimer's!!!! It's absolutely HORRIFIC.... Going from early stage to mid stage happened so quickly which I wasn't expecting. Now at night he's like a different person completely! Even looks different. But some days during the day sometimes he comes back a bit!? It's all very strange. Quite often I hear him shout "love, LOVE" which is what he calles my mum. She died of brain cancer well over 3 years ago!!!! This is all horrible for us both. All the adverts you see that make people think there is so much help out there for people like us, don't believe it!!!! Getting it is hard, if there is any... Good luck Chris & all the best to you Sir.... X
@@KougarManx468 Please don't just spout out misinformation. If you don't know the answer, don't go around telling people bullshit. Apparently he's still alive and is doing fairly well despise his circumstances.
A friend of mine's dad had this. Diagnosed at like 46, progressed very quickly. He only made it to 50. The first thing that happened was he got lost on the family property and called his wife. The property was only like 20 acres and they could see his truck from the kitchen window out in a field. It was sad. He was a big healthy active man and he went downhill fast.
To lose your mind at old age- that's one thing. It's unpreventable, it's 'assumed' that we may suffer from cognitive decline. But at 39? With so many years ahead of them? God help me, it's one of the most depressing things I've seen.
Yes it is depressing. I’m watching my Dad go through its& it’s heartbreaking to see someone who was always so healthy& smart go down this way. He was in Law Enforcement & most of his friends are gone now. Sometimes he thinks he’s still investigating something but just can’t get it. His mother had it, now he has it, so I’m worried about getting it because I take after his side of the family. I’m researching how to plan for it if I do get it because I don’t want to put my sons through this. I can’t even imagine being that young & getting it. He Definately needs to do as much as he can, while he can enjoy it. So sad…

Chris I just wanted to say thank you for having the courage to share your story on TH-cam. I had no idea this could happen to someone so young! You are a brave man and I will look into setting up a donation to your cause! Stay strong!
susan mulock it can happen at any age unfortunately, my sister is 56 she has been battling Alzheimer's since age 24. They classified her as early onset dementia back then but a visit to a support center for more information about her problem and our answers came from a doctor who took the time to look at her fully stated she never had dementia she has early onset Alzheimer's. Our world changed and we knew then how to take care of her correctly. It's disheartening that it is a reality, her journals lime book shelves, a reminder that she once was just like me. Her bookshelf is labeled "Forget me not"
We really don‘t know how happy and blessed we are... My whole family was so healthy, not one little thing I could worry about... We have to be thankfull, I really am
Im so very sorry you have this. I for one would not want the test as my dad had Alzheimers for 11 yrs after diagnosed. I saw the decline, and experienced seeing an active, very handsome man with movie star looks die in front of my eyes, loose the ability to walk, talk, become incontinent, go from normal foods to liquid food, and the list goes on. I for one would never want that test "just to see" if I had it. I would be so upset because I know what my husband's future would be like and the stress on family to watch, not to mention the major stress for them to know I would get it. I would know my future, and I don't want to know. You can get the test and show signs of getting Alz., and it may not show symptoms for years before the first signs of it. I don't want to know, and then be in waiting for it to show up. Once you experience the horrid grief of this disease, the last thing I want is to see if I might get it, but thats me. Im so sorry Chris has this, so live your life the very best you can, love your family, forgive those who need forgiven. Live it up while you can walk and talk, make beautiful memories for your loved ones that will be left, take lots of family photos, and above all, know that God is God, and He is real, and He has a beautiful place awaiting for all eternity. We all know the end results of alzheimers, but we can have a great quality of life with the one who is sick. All of our Thanksgivings and Christmas parties where at the care center in dad's last 3 years when we had to admit him. Birthday parties, you name it. He never missed one single one no matter what. We brought it to him. We fed him, took him on walks in his wheel chair, told him about our day, and etc....... He was a blessing unto the end, and he never forgot who my mother was. She went in every day to feed and care for him. A total of 60 years of a beautiful love story that ended March of 2014. I miss my father greatly. Chris, you have many years ahead of you....probably 20 or more since your in the beginning of the beginning of it, maybe even more. As it advances, pick a time to write to the ones you love most individually, and your memories you treasure of them, and how much you love them. They will treasure it for all time, because some day you won't be able to write it down or speak it. This is a great gift you can give to them later on. May God bless you, Keep you, and let you have many years with your family.
Best prevention is water fasting for 7 days upwards, draws out proteins that have accumulated on the brain for decades & burns them up as a fuel source. Once a brain stem has severed it can't be reattached, so there will never be a cure, it's all about prevention.
@@martok2008 My record is 30 straight days, did it this summer, if I ever felt dizzy i just placed 1 crystal of Celtic sea salt on my tongue until it dissolved. World record is 392 days (13 months). Lots of fasting channels here on YT, check them out. I'll try 60 days next summer.
Good on you pal, your enthusiasm and focus and appreciation for others is noted and i hope you feel accomplisment for what you have done, i follow mark beaumont and that is some epic journey you are doing. I am from manchester uk, but live with my loving wife here in canada bc. I can tell you, a man who is first hand understands the life of dementia, my wifes mother is in a care home close to us and has been for a while - also had been diagnosed with frontal lobe at around turning 50 and we spend some great times together, i think awereness should be spread and people in power help when the answers come. Keep up the good work pal- post - update - share your inspired chapters, don't let no one get in your way! Ash
I don't know if here is the right forum to say this. I’m so happy for my husband, alzheimer's disease almost made him disable and his life was at stake. Just 7 weeks into the alzheimer's disease Herbal formula treatment I purchase from Dr James Herbal Centre for my husband, my husband had great improvements and getting more better everyday. the herbal medication didn’t have any negative effect on him. you can also try dr James herbal formula contact him (jamesherbalformula@gmail.com ) or reach him via phone call +2349057856543 you can as well write me if you want more proof about it
OMG son, I just wan't to hug you. My baby girl is the same age as you. This is just heartbreaking, it's not something you should have to be coping with at this age. My heart is breaking for you. God bless and keep you.
Broke my heart for him. I know how he feels about his brother. My sister is in a nursing home now, so far she's not doing too bad, but it will come. My prayers go out to him!
Poor man. My mother had dementia at the end, but died age 86. I am now 71, and every time I misplace something, or open the fridge to put my shorts in there. I start to wonder. I can't imagine this mans predicament, howerver.
What a good looking young man, it’s so sad his life has been blighted so early with this horrific disease. I hope he is still doing well I worked with dementia patients all my working life, it’s so sad they call it the long goodbye as the sufferer gradually forgets who they are and who family members are. I pray he has long time before he gets to that stage. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Oh Chris... you poor lad! I'm just heartbroken for you, luv. My mother had lewys another deadly form of dementia. She was old but you are so young. I'd gladly take your place if I could.
We are not just mind. We are heart and human. I take care of an 84 year old woman with Alzheimer’s. We play dominos and do puzzles and I taught her a simple tune on the piano. We live in the moment and she’s the happiest person I’ve ever met. 😊
That is so heartbreaking, and just so cruel, and I think the most frustrating part of all is not being able to do a damn thing about it. My heart breaks for this poor man, because my family has been deeply affected by it as well. Two of my aunts, my uncle, and my grandmother died from it, and two other aunts currently have it. It has devastated my family in so many ways, as this evil disease robs you of who you are, it’s steals your very identity, and leaves you nothing but an empty shell. I’m adopted, and while I have way more than my fair share of health problems, none of them are neurological, if I was in this guys shoes, knowing what I was going to face, after the experiences I’ve had with my family members, I would honestly take my own life, before the disease did it for me. There’s one memory I will never forget and it haunts me almost every day of my life. My dad‘s mom, who was the last person to die from it in the family, was somebody I loved more than words can say. She broke her hip long before diagnosis, but ever since that happened, she was never the same afterwards, and it is the disease took her, peace by piece, giving her a few moments of clarity, which was absolutely terrifying for her, she would then fall back into a blank state, oblivious to everybody and everything around her. Anyways, The thing I will never forget more than anything, what is the last time we were able to take her away from the long-term care home for Christmas dinner. The doctor gave us the OK to do so, and even though she was pretty far gone by that point, she wasn’t yet violent in anyway, which unfortunately can be part of the disease. She came to our house, although she couldn’t really remember everybody, she seem to enjoy herself, because we made sure the entire family got together this time, knowing it would probably be the last time we ever have the chance to do so. She stayed for several hours. we had to have her back to the home before 10 PM, so we hopped in the car, got on the highway, and about 15 minutes before getting to the home, she suddenly reached over and grabbed the steering wheel from my father, and tried to run us off the road, screaming at the top of her lungs, that she he’s not going to go back “to that hell on earth“. She had a moment of clarity, and at the same time, a vicious anxiety attack, as she became aware of her situation. It caught my father off guard, it caught us off guard, and nearly cost us our lives. Thank God we were already in the far right lane, so we didn’t hit anybody as the car swerved to the right as we were doing 100 km an hour. My dad regain control, while I reached around from the back where I was sitting to try to comfort my grandmother, and the moment I grabbed her hands to take them off the steering wheel, she went right back to being happy as if nothing had happened at all. I was only about 15 at the time, but I remember crying all the way to the home, and when we got there, (I’m sorry, I am bawling my eyes out right now just remember it), I gave her the biggest hug that I could, because I knew that would be the last time I would ever see her at our house, and I was right. We told the doctor what it happened, and he said that is the last sign of the disease, that she could no longer leave the home ever again, as her cognitive decline became permanent. Of course we still went to visit her as often as we could, but she didn’t know who any of us were, but it didn’t matter to me. I always knew that deep down, somehow she knew we loved her, and over the next six months she stopped speaking completely, unable to walk, or move, as her brain slowly begin to shut down one system at a time, until she was in a vegetative state. We knew the end was very near, so we basically took turns holding a vigil at her bedside, because the last thing she wanted was to die alone. As it just so happens, she passed away when I was sitting at her bedside, just me and her. But this is when the memory becomes a little happy, because out of the blue, after being in a coma for months, practically brain dead, unable to move a muscle, she suddenly sat bolt upright, with zero assistance from anyone, swung her legs over the bed, grabbed my hands, thanked me, told me how much that she loved me and the family, kissed me on the cheek as she always did, and told us not to worry because she said she was going to be fine. She then just laid back down in bed, and died, literally in seconds. I thought I was hallucinating, so I had the nurses review the video footage, but it was real, I could not believe what happened. How is it possible that a comatose 87 year old woman could actually come back to life for one last goodbye? But she did, secretly I was always praying to God that he would allow us one final goodbye that she would actually remember, and my prayers were answered. The nurse told me that it’s not uncommon for that to happen, but it sure shocked the hell out of me, in the best way ever. She died with a smile on her face, As I was holding her hands. It broke everything in me to go through that, but I was so privileged and honoured that I was the last one to be with her, to make sure that she got her wish and did not die alone.....ok guys...I have to stop talking, it’s just too difficult to continue, forgive me.
best of luck Chris....i watch these and feel incredibly lucky to have reached with 73 nothing worse than high end of normal blood pressure. To watch this man saddens me no end
I have been taking care of Alzheimers patients for almost 12 years now in the U.S. I hope that the combination of medicines can prolong the quality of Chris's life. He is SO young.
Have you seen on youtube (chemtrails and the effect on the brain) and I would like your view on it please as you have alot of experience looking after dementia patience, I myself have alzheimer's / dementia ( 6 years now ) and I believe its has got alot to do with the chemicals that are being sprayed all around the world. And have you noticed the high increase of people getting this horrible disease. I think ive found my own cure myself. Keep up the great work your doing for your patients
If I get early Alzheimer’s, I’ve already given permission to my best friend to smother me with a pillow. This isn’t living. And memory and creativity are two things I hope to never lose.
I promised my Mum I would do the same for her but i was very young. She got cancer and I took care of her until the end. I was blessed to be able to do so. If you have a best friend they will take care of you not smother you with a pillow. Be well.
I’m just seeing this video. This is frightening. My cousins and I worry, (our parents are deceased....not from Alzheimer’s), because both of our paternal grandparents had Alzheimers and passed from it. We aren’t sure we won’t be diagnosed. About 10 years ago my doctor offered to test for the gene I believe but I declined. If I do have it, it’s not a guarantee I’ll get the disease. And if I know all I’ll do is worry about it. I’m 62 now and so far so good. My heart goes out to you and your family. You’re so young, your whole family was. I watched my Grandmother continue to fail with it and it broke my heart. She was an amazing woman, had been through so much in her life and always pushed forward. She ended up being diagnosed with breast cancer towards the end and we voted as a family not to do anything. Why subject her to surgery, treatment, it didn’t make sense. We only wanted her pain free. Maybe it was a blessing she got that diagnosis. It was an aggressive cancer, she passed about 7 months later and she wound have had Alzheimer’s a lit longer we were told. Horrible disease.
Chris,I am so sorry, Alzheimer's disease/Dementia, is a dreadful and cruel illness,it is currently affecting 850,000 people,And still continues to affect more. I went to visit My Grandmother,after she was diagnosed. Having spoken to her and seeing how she was affected,It distressed me deeply. I am very close to My Gran,So this has hit me hard. The last time I saw her prior to that,never one had it ever crossed My mind that she would ever get struck down by this illness. She has always been a strong woman and such a lovely lady with a kind and generous heart,One of pure gold come to think of it. She would dance around the house waltzing to Andre Rieu , She always made me smile and has always been there when I needed her,Even if it was just on the end of a phone. I do love My Gran,and it is horrible to see a loved one in such a bad way, Knowing that this debilitating illness is ravaging them from the inside. My mother,who is 3rd of my Gran's daughter's , tries to show bravery,But she is hurting and I know it, The thing is it's never their fault or yours, They are in their own world,completely unaware of how their loved ones are affected by seeing them that way, It's just I have heard or seen situations where people caring for an Alzheimer's patient have lost their temper and snapped,and naturally it's very hard to cope in that situation,But the patient is not to blame. I am dreading the day My gran forgets me,Becomes hostile, and is no longer herself indefinitely! ,There isn't a day goes by when she isn't on my mind, And after seeing how she was at the time, I went back to pick up My girlfriend from her Mother's place, and upon embracing her,I sobbed, It hit me so hard, Seeing one of My family no longer themselves. My girlfriend suggested I should organize a charity event. So I'm in the process of it now and pretty much almost done! I want to do everything I can to raise funds and awareness. From 27th May 2017, I will be hosting/performing a live show in aid of Alzheimer's UK charity. I will be working closely with Zoe Baggot who deals with Birmingham's side of things,I will be playing a mixture of Electronica,Dubstep,Chillout,Dance and Industrial,I know it is to early to be sure,and It may not be to everybody's taste,Or too far out for some to travel, and Donate, find time to listen to some of the music on there.There will be a live stream of the event so for those who live across the pond or other places you will get to see it .Also the music i have written for this live performance will be released on an album and 100% royalties are offered out to Alzheimer's UK There will be stunning visuals,Lazers and more, And the live stream will be broadcast globally on You Tube From the Coldstream Pub in Birmingham. I will be doing 3 Events in total to try to raise at least £1000 or over. I know I can't save My Gran,But I can try to save others in the future.
Many years ago one my clients was a 4 star General. Posted to a secret military O/S assignment, all was day to day normal. Within a span of 1 week, he deteriorated so badly, he had to be hospitalized and today lives in a War Vets' facility, in the dementia ward. Absolutely tragic...1 week is all it took for him to change the course of his life, his career, family and friend's lives forever.
@@imhere8380 Well firstly having strokes (and a series of mini strokes) is a symptom of many dementias. Also, there are around 100 different types of dementia.
@@donniet685 There are several types of dementia, each with distinct characteristics. Here are some of the most common ones: Alzheimer’s Disease: This is the most prevalent type of dementia, accounting for 60 to 80 percent of cases. Early signs include memory loss, neglect of personal care, mood changes, and disorientation. Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by brain cell death, leading to gradual impairment in speech and movement. It primarily affects older adults, but there’s also an early-onset form occurring in people in their 40s or 50s1. Vascular Dementia: The second most common type, vascular dementia, results from a lack of blood flow to the brain. It can be related to conditions like atherosclerotic disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Symptoms may appear slowly or suddenly, including confusion, disorientation, and difficulty concentrating. Strokes are a common cause of vascular dementia1. Lewy Body Dementia: This form of dementia is caused by abnormal deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein, known as Lewy bodies. It often presents with fluctuating cognition, visual hallucinations, and movement difficulties2. Frontotemporal Dementia: Frontotemporal dementia affects personality, language, and decision-making. It’s characterized by changes in behavior and social interactions1. Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease: A rare and fatal type of dementia, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease leads to rapid cognitive decline and neurological symptoms1. Huntington’s Disease: This genetic disorder causes progressive brain cell loss, leading to movement problems, cognitive decline, and emotional changes1. Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: Fluid buildup in the brain causes this type of dementia, resulting in gait disturbances, urinary incontinence, and cognitive decline1. Mixed Dementia: Some individuals experience a combination of different types of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. Hope this helps you.

Hi my name is Marcus I am Chris oldest son from Norway, I saw that you comment`d that (I wondering how he is doing today), I know that you comment this about a year ago but hey better late then never right. His dementia is starting to show very clearly, he had just visited me and Nat (my sister) in the summer here in Norway Bergen, the day after he landed, when he woke up he had forgot where he was, he forgets short time memory, such as vising Voss the day after, repeating him self, the day, etc. But he`s long time memory seems inntakt. He is still the same old funny dad with all he`s britishness aka army slags which make no sense at all. There is something he always told me: Quicker! before for the Germans get you!
Thid video wad punlished in 2015. If you read the comments under the video section it says he was diagnosed in 2010. Avg life span after diagnosis is 8 to 10 years. The last of that time usually not good quality of life. Let's hope is is not average.
The End of Alzheimer’s by Brenesen has the solution. As usual the main stream medical community is behind and/or dont want the cure out. It’s all about diet, lifestyle and detoxing.
You are an inspiration, Chris . I hope you are well ....It's a stealing illness, I see it in my brother . I pray one day science will have a break thru soon .
Early-onset Alzheimer’s is one of my greatest fears, I think it’s terrifying to lose your mind and your self
Look up chemtrails and the effect on the brain and let me know what you think?
@ drink dont really mix with aluminium, Barium, strontium, and all the other chemicals their spraying on everyone off us, all part of agenda 21 depopulation, youtube ( rise up with risey) and ( samual hofman). There'll let you know what the government's are covering up, ive found my own cure for my alzheimer's dementia, aka ( chementia ). I think we're all going together to be honest with you, pole shift/reversal in 4 to 7 years.
@@dennisglass412 Paranoia is a strong thing. Be careful, and don't trust everything you read online. You are what you read.
@@dennisglass412 Buddy, I'm sure you mean well, but you've bought into some serious bullshit. I'm willing to bet you also believe that the moon landings were fake, Elvis is alive and the earth is flat. Don't just believe whatever conspiracy theory is hip.
If you want to stave off Alzheimer's disease, exercise and eat cruciferous vegetables especially broccoli sprouts. Take your vitamins. Exercise your brain by reading new materials and learning new skills. And for the love of God, get enough sleep.
Dennis Glass That is seriously not happening! It just isn't. You guys who believe in all that shit really need to snap out of it and revisit all of the things you believe are happening. None of the stuff you say is going to happen in the next 4-7 years but when it doesn't, you will simply modify the conspiracy theory instead of just realizing you were wrong and breathe a sigh of relief. For some inexplicable reason, you guys actually want to hold onto these outrageous beliefs. You seriously have a thought disorder and the internet has made it contagious. Conspiracy theorists are so fill of rage at stuff that isn't even real. It's actually sad to watch but you guys are choosing to live in your false reality with your refusal to admit you could actually be wrong. It's really bizarre.
Good man. I too have dementia, (Frontotemporal) and my life span is somewhere between one to five years. Fortunately, when I was 16 I went on a backpacking trip though Europe, which was one of the, if not the best times of my life. Now that I've been diagnosed with dementia, I am going to throw off my normal penny - pinching ways and have as much fun, and see as many of my friends as possible. I implore anyone else who is reading this and has dementia to do the best and most enjoyable thing that you can while you have the time. Though it is hard, TRY not to feel sorry for yourself, as you need to use such time as you have profitably. God bless you all.

My dad retired from the Army in 2010. In 2016, he developed dementia. In 2021, Covid got him and he passed. I remember taking care of my dad and he would sometime forget who I am. The last words he told me was “I will always be proud of you and will always love you, even when I forget who you are.” When my father passed, I made a oath to help those with Alzheimer and dementia.
Rip to your dad I hope your doing well it’s hard to lose someone 😔
That is really beautiful, your dad telling you this. Even though he has left this world, reach out to him. I am sure he can hear you.
You are an Amazing Son! Your Father must’ve loved you deeply! God be with you all the days of your life.✝️🙏❤️
This is heartwrenching .
Husband's been diagnosed. Its so hard to watch him go away.
stay tough, i'm sure you're strong
So sorry! How did he get diagnosed
im so sorry.
Ill pray for your husband, its not over. In Jesus name.
don't give up. Find alternative medicine.

I know Chris and he's doing well, still in the very early stages living a normal life with dementia, and his brother is still in a care home, but alive in the later stages of the disease
Thank you for the update Lauren.

They tyed RIP
If he is still alive y in the word would they type that?
Are they wishing him death or what?
@@thegracetofollow4194 I’m not sure what that’s about but I spoke to him just before Christmas and he’s doing amazing still living well in the early stages like he’s done for the past 6/7 years with dementia
Can we still sponsor him? This breaks me down. At Stanford and Harvard they have had a lot of success with people who have the gene getting a lot better I signed my older friend up cause I’m sure she has it as did 5 generations before her. I hope he can come here and get into the program because the people it’s helped are like night and day. It’s a daily regimen but it revives the youthful part of being alive

My father had Alzheimer's at the age of 65 ... We had gone through very rough time... He was an active man... He was a teacher as well as a good singer and a writer... He forgot every thing... He died at the age of 68 ... Even today we feel that pain

Poor man. Such a cruel disease. Glad to hear he's a fighter 💪🏻
I feel so sad that this entire family just gets wiped out by this disease. My grandma recently got diagnosed, which destroyed me. I cant even imagine everybody you love having it
My grandmother died with severe dementia. Be careful with what you do, as it’s possible you’ll get it yourself. Dementia is a genetic thing.
My grandma said she hated me and wished I was dead in her late stage dementia
My mother died recently of alzheimer's and I cared for her at home until her passing. I feel deeply for everyone who has this disease and for those that support them.
I'm so sorry to hear that. My mom went through that too. Did you called 911 immediately and have her sent to the hospital to see if they can save her life from Alzheimer's? I'm not sure if there are any survivors.

Have you guys got vaccinated for anything in the past? That would explain it. Or living in areas where heavy chemtrails are common? Aluminium toxicity is the main reason. You find it in vaccines and chemtrails both. Soon everyone on the planet will be suffering from Alzheimers and a million other things that affect the brain. It is done by design....

Watched my mum get diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s when I was 18, I’m 20 now and she doesn’t know who I am, nor can I have a conversation with her. It’s an extremely heartbreaking disease but I am blessed I’ve got siblings and we look after each other very well. My heart seriously goes out to anyone who has to experience a loved one go through this, it’s not easy at all. That same person prior to the disease is still inside that heart of theirs, it’s just a shame what this disease does to the brain. You begin to appreciate even getting a smile out of them. Stay strong guys 💛
I love that he's able to travel and cross those places (including my hometown) off his list of places to see. I lost my foster Mom to Alzheimers. It's a terrible disease. To have it so young is heartbreaking.
This is heartbreaking. I can't even imagine what this man is going through. It must be terrifying knowing that you have a genetic ticking time bomb inside you and wondering when it will go off.
My grandma got Alzheimer’s at 41 also early onset. Just terrible! It took her life in her mid 50s. So much love for this young man and family and loved ones.
He has the kindest eyes on earth, may God bless his sweet soul!
Anyone know how Chris is now? I care for my father who has mid stages of Alzheimer's!!!! It's absolutely HORRIFIC.... Going from early stage to mid stage happened so quickly which I wasn't expecting. Now at night he's like a different person completely! Even looks different. But some days during the day sometimes he comes back a bit!? It's all very strange. Quite often I hear him shout "love, LOVE" which is what he calles my mum. She died of brain cancer well over 3 years ago!!!! This is all horrible for us both. All the adverts you see that make people think there is so much help out there for people like us, don't believe it!!!! Getting it is hard, if there is any... Good luck Chris & all the best to you Sir.... X

A friend of mine's dad had this. Diagnosed at like 46, progressed very quickly. He only made it to 50. The first thing that happened was he got lost on the family property and called his wife. The property was only like 20 acres and they could see his truck from the kitchen window out in a field. It was sad. He was a big healthy active man and he went downhill fast.

To lose your mind at old age- that's one thing. It's unpreventable, it's 'assumed' that we may suffer from cognitive decline.
But at 39? With so many years ahead of them? God help me, it's one of the most depressing things I've seen.
Not even halfway through his life.
Yes it is depressing. I’m watching my Dad go through its& it’s heartbreaking to see someone who was always so healthy& smart go down this way. He was in Law Enforcement & most of his friends are gone now. Sometimes he thinks he’s still investigating something but just can’t get it. His mother had it, now he has it, so I’m worried about getting it because I take after his side of the family. I’m researching how to plan for it if I do get it because I don’t want to put my sons through this. I can’t even imagine being that young & getting it. He Definately needs to do as much as he can, while he can enjoy it. So sad…

susan mulock it can happen at any age unfortunately, my sister is 56 she has been battling Alzheimer's since age 24. They classified her as early onset dementia back then but a visit to a support center for more information about her problem and our answers came from a doctor who took the time to look at her fully stated she never had dementia she has early onset Alzheimer's. Our world changed and we knew then how to take care of her correctly. It's disheartening that it is a reality, her journals lime book shelves, a reminder that she once was just like me. Her bookshelf is labeled "Forget me not"
Laurie Knowlton so sorry to hear. Prayers out to you. My grandma passed away from it. How is your sister doing now?
What an amazing man to face his fears and take the test. He seems very bright. I hope he has many good years .
We really don‘t know how happy and blessed we are... My whole family was so healthy, not one little thing I could worry about... We have to be thankfull, I really am
Im so very sorry you have this. I for one would not want the test as my dad had Alzheimers for 11 yrs after diagnosed. I saw the decline, and experienced seeing an active, very handsome man with movie star looks die in front of my eyes, loose the ability to walk, talk, become incontinent, go from normal foods to liquid food, and the list goes on. I for one would never want that test "just to see" if I had it. I would be so upset because I know what my husband's future would be like and the stress on family to watch, not to mention the major stress for them to know I would get it. I would know my future, and I don't want to know. You can get the test and show signs of getting Alz., and it may not show symptoms for years before the first signs of it. I don't want to know, and then be in waiting for it to show up. Once you experience the horrid grief of this disease, the last thing I want is to see if I might get it, but thats me. Im so sorry Chris has this, so live your life the very best you can, love your family, forgive those who need forgiven. Live it up while you can walk and talk, make beautiful memories for your loved ones that will be left, take lots of family photos, and above all, know that God is God, and He is real, and He has a beautiful place awaiting for all eternity. We all know the end results of alzheimers, but we can have a great quality of life with the one who is sick. All of our Thanksgivings and Christmas parties where at the care center in dad's last 3 years when we had to admit him. Birthday parties, you name it. He never missed one single one no matter what. We brought it to him. We fed him, took him on walks in his wheel chair, told him about our day, and etc....... He was a blessing unto the end, and he never forgot who my mother was. She went in every day to feed and care for him. A total of 60 years of a beautiful love story that ended March of 2014. I miss my father greatly. Chris, you have many years ahead of you....probably 20 or more since your in the beginning of the beginning of it, maybe even more. As it advances, pick a time to write to the ones you love most individually, and your memories you treasure of them, and how much you love them. They will treasure it for all time, because some day you won't be able to write it down or speak it. This is a great gift you can give to them later on. May God bless you, Keep you, and let you have many years with your family.
Let’s hope research throws up a cure real soon, especially for folk like this poor young man. Praying for a cure.🙏
You can't cure a genetic condition. And you can't give people memories that they don't have anymore. That's not how it works
If praying accomplished anything then pray such a condition didn’t exist in the first place. There is no god so prayer is a waste of time.
Best prevention is water fasting for 7 days upwards, draws out proteins that have accumulated on the brain for decades & burns them up as a fuel source.
Once a brain stem has severed it can't be reattached, so there will never be a cure, it's all about prevention.

We are not just mind. We are heart and human. I take care of an 84 year old woman with Alzheimer’s. We play dominos and do puzzles and I taught her a simple tune on the piano. We live in the moment and she’s the happiest person I’ve ever met. 😊
but you arent you without what? memories
Oh Chris, my heart goes out to you.
When i see someone crying i cant help but feel their pain,i cry with them.
Very heartbreaking. I believe that many suffer from what Chris has and go undiagnosed.
I am a carer for people with alzheimer's, there is no words to express how awful this disease is, and people are not aware how bad it is.
That is so heartbreaking, and just so cruel, and I think the most frustrating part of all is not being able to do a damn thing about it. My heart breaks for this poor man, because my family has been deeply affected by it as well. Two of my aunts, my uncle, and my grandmother died from it, and two other aunts currently have it. It has devastated my family in so many ways, as this evil disease robs you of who you are, it’s steals your very identity, and leaves you nothing but an empty shell. I’m adopted, and while I have way more than my fair share of health problems, none of them are neurological, if I was in this guys shoes, knowing what I was going to face, after the experiences I’ve had with my family members, I would honestly take my own life, before the disease did it for me. There’s one memory I will never forget and it haunts me almost every day of my life. My dad‘s mom, who was the last person to die from it in the family, was somebody I loved more than words can say. She broke her hip long before diagnosis, but ever since that happened, she was never the same afterwards, and it is the disease took her, peace by piece, giving her a few moments of clarity, which was absolutely terrifying for her, she would then fall back into a blank state, oblivious to everybody and everything around her. Anyways, The thing I will never forget more than anything, what is the last time we were able to take her away from the long-term care home for Christmas dinner. The doctor gave us the OK to do so, and even though she was pretty far gone by that point, she wasn’t yet violent in anyway, which unfortunately can be part of the disease. She came to our house, although she couldn’t really remember everybody, she seem to enjoy herself, because we made sure the entire family got together this time, knowing it would probably be the last time we ever have the chance to do so. She stayed for several hours. we had to have her back to the home before 10 PM, so we hopped in the car, got on the highway, and about 15 minutes before getting to the home, she suddenly reached over and grabbed the steering wheel from my father, and tried to run us off the road, screaming at the top of her lungs, that she he’s not going to go back “to that hell on earth“. She had a moment of clarity, and at the same time, a vicious anxiety attack, as she became aware of her situation. It caught my father off guard, it caught us off guard, and nearly cost us our lives. Thank God we were already in the far right lane, so we didn’t hit anybody as the car swerved to the right as we were doing 100 km an hour. My dad regain control, while I reached around from the back where I was sitting to try to comfort my grandmother, and the moment I grabbed her hands to take them off the steering wheel, she went right back to being happy as if nothing had happened at all. I was only about 15 at the time, but I remember crying all the way to the home, and when we got there, (I’m sorry, I am bawling my eyes out right now just remember it), I gave her the biggest hug that I could, because I knew that would be the last time I would ever see her at our house, and I was right. We told the doctor what it happened, and he said that is the last sign of the disease, that she could no longer leave the home ever again, as her cognitive decline became permanent. Of course we still went to visit her as often as we could, but she didn’t know who any of us were, but it didn’t matter to me. I always knew that deep down, somehow she knew we loved her, and over the next six months she stopped speaking completely, unable to walk, or move, as her brain slowly begin to shut down one system at a time, until she was in a vegetative state. We knew the end was very near, so we basically took turns holding a vigil at her bedside, because the last thing she wanted was to die alone. As it just so happens, she passed away when I was sitting at her bedside, just me and her. But this is when the memory becomes a little happy, because out of the blue, after being in a coma for months, practically brain dead, unable to move a muscle, she suddenly sat bolt upright, with zero assistance from anyone, swung her legs over the bed, grabbed my hands, thanked me, told me how much that she loved me and the family, kissed me on the cheek as she always did, and told us not to worry because she said she was going to be fine. She then just laid back down in bed, and died, literally in seconds. I thought I was hallucinating, so I had the nurses review the video footage, but it was real, I could not believe what happened. How is it possible that a comatose 87 year old woman could actually come back to life for one last goodbye? But she did, secretly I was always praying to God that he would allow us one final goodbye that she would actually remember, and my prayers were answered. The nurse told me that it’s not uncommon for that to happen, but it sure shocked the hell out of me, in the best way ever. She died with a smile on her face, As I was holding her hands. It broke everything in me to go through that, but I was so privileged and honoured that I was the last one to be with her, to make sure that she got her wish and did not die alone.....ok guys...I have to stop talking, it’s just too difficult to continue, forgive me.
God bless you 🙏
😊
I wept whilst watching this clip as this beautiful young man walked me through his life. Chris you are a Love and very brave.
This is so sad :( this was also 5 yrs ago. I really hope he’s doing ok
He’s long dead.
best of luck Chris....i watch these and feel incredibly lucky to have reached with 73 nothing worse than high end of normal blood pressure. To watch this man saddens me no end
Appreciated your video Chris, quite a challenge very inspiring. I was diagnosed about a week ago with Alzheimers keep up your courage brother 👍
I hope you are doing well, keep your head up brother ❤️
I have been taking care of Alzheimers patients for almost 12 years now in the U.S. I hope that the combination of medicines can prolong the quality of Chris's life. He is SO young.
Have you seen on youtube (chemtrails and the effect on the brain) and I would like your view on it please as you have alot of experience looking after dementia patience, I myself have alzheimer's / dementia ( 6 years now ) and I believe its has got alot to do with the chemicals that are being sprayed all around the world. And have you noticed the high increase of people getting this horrible disease. I think ive found my own cure myself. Keep up the great work your doing for your patients
If I get early Alzheimer’s, I’ve already given permission to my best friend to smother me with a pillow. This isn’t living. And memory and creativity are two things I hope to never lose.
I promised my Mum I would do the same for her but i was very young. She got cancer and I took care of her until the end. I was blessed to be able to do so. If you have a best friend they will take care of you not smother you with a pillow. Be well.
same. euthanization should be legal. I don't want to go through cancer or dementia. I have enough mental issues and I'm not even an adult.
Bless you, Chris, i send much love to you
Very brave man.
Only just seen this.Hope your clycling trip went ok and Good luck for the future.
Your a true inspiration fella
I’m just seeing this video. This is frightening. My cousins and I worry, (our parents are deceased....not from Alzheimer’s), because both of our paternal grandparents had Alzheimers and passed from it. We aren’t sure we won’t be diagnosed. About 10 years ago my doctor offered to test for the gene I believe but I declined. If I do have it, it’s not a guarantee I’ll get the disease. And if I know all I’ll do is worry about it. I’m 62 now and so far so good.
My heart goes out to you and your family. You’re so young, your whole family was. I watched my Grandmother continue to fail with it and it broke my heart. She was an amazing woman, had been through so much in her life and always pushed forward. She ended up being diagnosed with breast cancer towards the end and we voted as a family not to do anything. Why subject her to surgery, treatment, it didn’t make sense. We only wanted her pain free. Maybe it was a blessing she got that diagnosis. It was an aggressive cancer, she passed about 7 months later and she wound have had Alzheimer’s a lit longer we were told. Horrible disease.
*Mom, Alzheimer's story:* *th-cam.com/video/ABoP57zTFCg/w-d-xo.html*
My grandmother has this. It's so sad watching a loved one go down that road
Chris,I am so sorry, Alzheimer's disease/Dementia, is a dreadful and cruel illness,it is currently affecting 850,000 people,And still continues to affect more.
I went to visit My Grandmother,after she was diagnosed. Having spoken to her and seeing how she was affected,It distressed me deeply. I am very close to My Gran,So this has hit me hard. The last time I saw her prior to that,never one had it ever crossed My mind that she would ever get struck down by this illness. She has always been a strong woman and such a lovely lady with a kind and generous heart,One of pure gold come to think of it. She would dance around the house waltzing to Andre Rieu , She always made me smile and has always been there when I needed her,Even if it was just on the end of a phone.
I do love My Gran,and it is horrible to see a loved one in such a bad way, Knowing that this debilitating illness is ravaging them from the inside.
My mother,who is 3rd of my Gran's daughter's , tries to show bravery,But she is hurting and I know it, The thing is it's never their fault or yours, They are in their own world,completely unaware of how their loved ones are affected by seeing them that way, It's just I have heard or seen situations where people caring for an Alzheimer's patient have lost their temper and snapped,and naturally it's very hard to cope in that situation,But the patient is not to blame. I am dreading the day My gran forgets me,Becomes hostile, and is no longer herself indefinitely! ,There isn't a day goes by when she isn't on my mind, And after seeing how she was at the time, I went back to pick up My girlfriend from her Mother's place, and upon embracing her,I sobbed, It hit me so hard, Seeing one of My family no longer themselves. My girlfriend suggested I should organize a charity event. So I'm in the process of it now and pretty much almost done! I want to do everything I can to raise funds and awareness.
From 27th May 2017, I will be hosting/performing a live show in aid of Alzheimer's UK charity. I will be working closely with Zoe Baggot who deals with Birmingham's side of things,I will be playing a mixture of Electronica,Dubstep,Chillout,Dance and Industrial,I know it is to early to be sure,and It may not be to everybody's taste,Or too far out for some to travel, and Donate, find time to listen to some of the music on there.There will be a live stream of the event so for those who live across the pond or other places you will get to see it .Also the music i have written for this live performance will be released on an album and 100% royalties are offered out to Alzheimer's UK
There will be stunning visuals,Lazers and more, And the live stream will be broadcast globally on You Tube From the Coldstream Pub in Birmingham.
I will be doing 3 Events in total to try to raise at least £1000 or over.
I know I can't save My Gran,But I can try to save others in the future.
Many years ago one my clients was a 4 star General. Posted to a secret military O/S assignment, all was day to day normal. Within a span of 1 week, he deteriorated so badly, he had to be hospitalized and today lives in a War Vets' facility, in the dementia ward. Absolutely tragic...1 week is all it took for him to change the course of his life, his career, family and friend's lives forever.
Surely he must have had a stroke (or series of them).
@@donniet685 NO. It was dementia only.
@@imhere8380 Well firstly having strokes (and a series of mini strokes) is a symptom of many dementias. Also, there are around 100 different types of dementia.
@@donniet685 There are several types of dementia, each with distinct characteristics. Here are some of the most common ones:
Alzheimer’s Disease: This is the most prevalent type of dementia, accounting for 60 to 80 percent of cases. Early signs include memory loss, neglect of personal care, mood changes, and disorientation. Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by brain cell death, leading to gradual impairment in speech and movement. It primarily affects older adults, but there’s also an early-onset form occurring in people in their 40s or 50s1.
Vascular Dementia: The second most common type, vascular dementia, results from a lack of blood flow to the brain. It can be related to conditions like atherosclerotic disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Symptoms may appear slowly or suddenly, including confusion, disorientation, and difficulty concentrating. Strokes are a common cause of vascular dementia1.
Lewy Body Dementia: This form of dementia is caused by abnormal deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein, known as Lewy bodies. It often presents with fluctuating cognition, visual hallucinations, and movement difficulties2.
Frontotemporal Dementia: Frontotemporal dementia affects personality, language, and decision-making. It’s characterized by changes in behavior and social interactions1.
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease: A rare and fatal type of dementia, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease leads to rapid cognitive decline and neurological symptoms1.
Huntington’s Disease: This genetic disorder causes progressive brain cell loss, leading to movement problems, cognitive decline, and emotional changes1.
Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: Fluid buildup in the brain causes this type of dementia, resulting in gait disturbances, urinary incontinence, and cognitive decline1.
Mixed Dementia: Some individuals experience a combination of different types of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. Hope this helps you.
This sad but this man does smile, I hope for him.....so so sad. He’s trying so hard to become this. It’s so hard to listen to him.his mind is where he wants it.💞🦋🦋🐝
Don't know what you got til it's gone... please appreciate everything you have and don't take for granted your mental health
My Mum had Alzheimer’s. Such an awful disease. It robs you and your family.
God bless you and your family.
Thank you for sharing your story good luck.✝️🙏❤️
This broke my heart 😔
Such a lovely young man
Chris I pray for you dear. How sad for you I cry with you.
There's no god.
@@wildmansamurai3663 Yes, there is a God. He will help, guide you and cope with any situation, if you ask him.
@@lorestrahan2207 Anyway, god is a myth.. Religion is for idiots.
@@wildmansamurai3663 God is not a myth. He is real. I have a close relationship with him and I am not a idiot. You, however, will find out how wrong you are. Hopefullly, when you are still alive.
@Gizzmose2002 There is a lot of room for God in science. He created science and humanity. Only a brilliant architect could come up with life and the Universe. Everything, even a pencil needs to be designed. It can't create itself. It is logic. The more you know about life , the Universe, the wondrous of the world, the more sure you should be that there is a mind behind all of this. Atheists are in denial. Wake up, there is no other possibility. Nothing comes out of nothing!
I am so sorry to hear this.
Can someone help me😢i just want to live a normal life😢but i can't beacause i can easily forget things even when i'm just talking to my friends and other people i simply just forget the things i wanted to say😢😢i don't know why am i like this...
What a soul crushing diagnosis. Imagine chilling in the doctors office and suddenly being told that you are going to loose all of your memories, forget who you are, your loved ones, and die a thoughtless husk years later… when you forget how to breathe
Oh Cris, how are you? l truly wish a cure could be found for you and others living with Alzheimers.
My mother in law had dementia / Alzheimer’s and it was so hard on the family to see her loose herself.
My dad and my uncle had Dementia with Parkinson's

You're a wonderful person to wish others well when you yourself are going through so much!
I hope you’re doing ok ❤️
This is three years late but I hope you’re doing well.
How are you doing?
Honestly so heartbreaking 💔💔 god love him and anyone who has it and their families 💔
Has anyone got an update on this young gentleman please. It's so upsetting to see a fine young man living with this disease. Heartbreaking.
I didn't know you could get it being so young I would like to know how he's doing to
Roll up a few comments to the one that has 14 replies, his son replied in it.
Its a year since his son replied, im wondering how hes doing now too.😢
He is probably dead now. The illness is very progressive and deadly.
MrsQuietMusic Well sadly yes, but putting like that makes us really sad.
What a splendid, fiercely brave and positive man. I've been a privileged and spoiled little wretch all my life, getting upset when the salon colors my hair wrong or when there's no poached salmon on the menu at my Thai restaurant. Right now I feel so ashamed of myself I could crawl into a hole. People, please, please appreciate your blessings and good fortune, and if you're asked to give, just give, don't ask questions,
Nice looking out Gawd.. Dam this is heartbreaking.
I have schizophrenia and I'm in a similar position, memory is totally shot. We need to fund the study of human neurology, it will help all of us.
Does schizophrenia causes memory loss
I'm 39 wow so sorry guy hope things work out I really do
Best of luck mate. Whatever you achieve in this life makes you a star. You have already shown that. 💖💖
This is from 2015 I wonder how he is doing today :(
TH-cam is You Was that really a comment like i think it was? R u making fun of this /him?
Use English
Hi my name is Marcus I am Chris oldest son from Norway, I saw that you comment`d that (I wondering how he is doing today), I know that you comment this about a year ago but hey better late then never right. His dementia is starting to show very clearly, he had just visited me and Nat (my sister) in the summer here in Norway Bergen, the day after he landed, when he woke up he had forgot where he was, he forgets short time memory, such as vising Voss the day after, repeating him self, the day, etc. But he`s long time memory seems inntakt. He is still the same old funny dad with all he`s britishness aka army slags which make no sense at all.
There is something he always told me: Quicker! before for the Germans get you!
Thid video wad punlished in 2015. If you read the comments under the video section it says he was diagnosed in 2010. Avg life span after diagnosis is 8 to 10 years. The last of that time usually not good quality of life. Let's hope is is not average.
The End of Alzheimer’s by Brenesen has the solution. As usual the main stream medical community is behind and/or dont want the cure out. It’s all about diet, lifestyle and detoxing.
I'm so sorry for this young man 😔
Poor man, wish there was a cute, this is heart breaking!
You are an inspiration, Chris . I hope you are well ....It's a stealing illness, I see it in my brother . I pray one day science will have a break thru soon .
