No I’m sure I did not buy a ticket for that ride. Besides I have enough things to complain about and i could not complain if I did not remember anything. Who told you that, I hope it was a door to door salesman selling snake oil?

Actually I read the same thing. However, it is a matter of degree. It’s not like having Alzheimer’s.

My Mother had Parkinson’s Lewey bodies for 14 years . Had hallucinations all the time luckily usually nice things . It is very different from Alzheimer’s I think not so bad as even recognised us near the end and understood .
