It was a rough weekend for my mom only in the sense that she had way more "visitors" than she has been having since Dr. Barton got her set up with her natural supplements. The supplements, they help keep hallucinations away as well as keep her from having Uncle Al type behavior. Uncle Al has a similar diagnosis as my mom. He's in a nursing home and taking the pharmaceutical drugs. Uncle Al has a lot of confusion and has trouble walking on dark floors.
Dark Floor Shuffle
When my mom was on less of the Cognifactor, she did what I like to refer to as the "dark floor shuffle." She (like Uncle Al) would put her foot in front of her and check to be sure that it was a floor and not a big hole. I use this behavior as a gauge, when my mom does this shuffle on dark floors, hallucinations are not far behind.
Today, my mom is having a good day. She slept through the night, unlike the past several nights, she was up a lot. Not even the Ashwagandha could keep her asleep.
In conclusion on this topic, it's not just one supplement that is helping my mother, it's a group of them. I am writing a post about her supplements and what they do to help her. Food is medicine... food, spices and herbs are also part of her health plan. Everything combined is helping my mom to have more good days than bad, we're back on track.
