Case History of Reversal of Dementia
Recently, yours truly came across a well-known, friendly patient. Known for over 40 years. She is 84 years of age, history of hypertension for over 20 years She retired from a dedicated secretarial job in which she kept me involved in TRUTH STUDY GROUP once per week. She loved her gardening and flowers as her activities. She kept up reading her DAILY CREATIVE THOUGHTS.
Since the past 6 months, there was noticeable problems with memory. Could not recognize me, “WHO YOU AGAIN?” The daughter was frightened about 2 months ago when her mother started talking to strange people, not visible to her. She was hearing sounds and replying to them. They were in another world, and spoke in another language, which only the patient understood, and she replied in unintelligible words. She was gesticulating with her hands.
The patient responded quickly to the medications. Due to occasionally having problems, like sleeping for 24 hours, the daughter got frightened. We had close communication, and tweaking (reduce or increase) the medication to get the best restfulness and strength when awake. By understanding and obedience to get adequate fluids, nutrition, vitamin B12 and other supplements, exercise, and positive affirmations, she has made a miraculous recovery. My greatest joy was experienced when after 2 weeks, she smiled brightly and called me by name.
DEDICATION: We rarely see this type of interest and concern in family members. The daughter works 5 days per week (8 a.m. to 5 p.m. – Hectic job). Fortunately, there is a helper and cousin, who fill in the time when she is not at home. She is encouraging exercise like sitting up, walking with help, recognizing daughter, and talking with me on the phone sensibly.
EDUCATION: After following a holistic lifestyle management, we were happy to see the glimmer of hope. The daughter obeyed the administration of:
- Blood Pressure medication
- Vitamin Supplements
- Sleep and anti-psychotic medication
- Diet control (reduce excess carbs and juices – which included coconut water and orange juice)
- Adequate protein foods
- Treat any infections (she had upper respiratory infection treated with short course of antibiotics and medicines)
- Pain was treated
- Positivity – Repeat “I AM WONDERFUL”
- Passive exercises – help to move the patient side to side, lift legs, lift back of chest, neck and head
- LET GO, LET GOD
ERADICATION: It is hoped that total removal of this ever-increasing condition can be tackled early by prevention and logical intervention. The MNEMONIC NEURO is suggested:
N = Nutritional balance
E = Exercise
U = Undo stress
R = Rest – Adequate deep restorative sleep
O = Optimize cerebral function – Find a purpose to live!
WE THANK THEE LORD FOR OUR OPPORTUNITY TO BE TRANSFORMED!
