How effective is it in the onset. Will it slow down the process.

When he focuses on his deficits to much he becomes scared and tearful. I understand! The other side of the coin is that I would like… read more

Dad is 87 and mother is 84. Mother has $620 from S.S. each month and that's it. There was no money set aside for long… read more
