Kind of a setback tonight...
Mom was sad and kinda depressed this afternoon. I asked her what was going on and she was sad because of Mark Zuckerberg was all over the new today about saving lives and she had enough of her faculties to have real sadness that others did not know about her treatment for dementia to help. We both cried tonight watching the headlines about facebook and mark zuckerberg when we both know how much this cure could impact so many. I guess that's what makes my mom so special. Instead of caring about just herself she wanted everyone to know.
Wow 4 weeks ago she was slobbering on herself and now she is crying about others who don't know about this treatment.
I got to thinking. What a crummy world where unless you are Steve Jobs with "an app for that" or Bono from U2 with a guitar you really can't tell the world there is a cure for a disease. Major bummer. I think about all those sons and daughters (which BTW will be a majority of facebook's users in 10 years will be changing their parents diapers from dementia and alzheimers) who could benefit today from Enbrel.
Kinda sad right now :(
