My dad is in assisted-living. He struggles with dementia, we’ve never had it diagnosed but believe that it could be vascular, or Lewy body. When he gets difficult with staff, they want him to take drugs. I don’t personally like the side effects of Ativan or the antipsychotic drugs on dad. I’ve watched one Teepa snow interview with a CEO who is in the business of helping to market the drug and was intrigued. Still a bit nervous about using it because it hasn’t been tested much yet.

From every post that I have read and the experience my Dad and Aunt had with CBD it is very much like anything else, works for some, not so well for others and my Aunt said it just made her sleep. My dad used a CBD oil for his feet, neuropathy, and he ended up being taken off of gabapentin.

I think a natural course is always the best first choice before resorting to medically created drugs. I don't personally believe that the medical industry has our best interests at heart, it is HUGE money and the sicker they keep the population the more money the machine earns.

I would give it a chance, the worse thing that could happen is he has behavioral issues, which I have never heard or read happening, and it might just help.

Best of luck and do let us know what you do and how it turns out.

Did you even bother to read my post? I said that from posts and personal, so climb down.

I know that you are involved in the machine and I think that you being so touchy about it speaks volumes for my point of view.
