Welcome to Wrong Planet. This is a very interesting thread. You wrote that they analyzed you and determined that you had AD. I scanned AD and it correlates to Alzheimer's Disease. So I read on and you said "at a time in my life others are getting dementia." That is interesting. Perhaps you... |

We experienced a great deal of i... |
