1. My brother used to say

almost the exact thing you said about trump only he would say it about president Biden.

[milestogo]

3. If Biden had a major diagnosis, he would say so.

Trump would not.

[Tickle]

5. True. Biden s physicals

were open to the public. We knew he was fine

[brush]

9. People forget Biden broke his foot on a bike ride. trump wouldn't dare try to ride as bike now.

His lifts wouldn't work too well on a bike.

The broken foot was the reason for Biden's stiff gait. One doesn't walk smoothly when the foort doesn't flex as before.

[Tickle]

12. Did you have to put that

image of fat orange guy falling off a bike? 🤢🤢

[brush]

15. Oh, I didn't mean to reference a 'can't un-see' thought. That would be hilarious though.

[Emrys]

21. He also has arthritis in his lower spine

I broke a toe some tears ago, For one reason or another, it never healed properly, so I could sympathize with Biden's gait issues despite being a lot younger than him. Even more so when I had a sciatica flare-up last year. In both our cases, the foot injury may have had something to do with our back problem.

28. "some tears ago" ... must have hurt :) . . . . nt

[Emrys]

31. Ut affected ny tyoing too

[kerry-is-my-prez]

17. It's Dementia- his brain is gone.With Parkinson's you often have good brain function.

Look at Michael J. Fox.

2. What were the signs she saw?

[milestogo]

4. She didn't say

but I am assuming body movements and facial expression.

[BOSSHOG]

6. When I look at him

I wanna puke. A very unkind person who has surrounded himself with likeminded selfish types. Makes for a sad environment in our country.

[CountAllVotes]

7. My late husband died of vascular dementia

He had all of the symptoms listed above.

He was dx'd in February and gone in May.

It was a horrible way to go, just horrible!

[SheltieLover]

10. ...

[milestogo]

14. I'm so sorry.

[JustAnotherGen]

25. I'm so sorry

[OAITW r.2.0]

8. I see a man living beyond his experation date.

When he dies, who will the Republican Party pin their salvation on?

[Doodley]

11. I haven't seen those symptoms in him.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

13. I think it's much more complex than Parkinson's...

First, he was raised a spoiled brat with a sense of entitlement. The malignant narcissism is a HUGE component of this—he thinks he’s the greatest at everything, never makes mistakes, is smarter than he really is (by probably 100 points), can’t accept criticism, tries to paint everyone as being “against” him or else posing as a saviour, and has an obvious compulsion to fucking LIE about everything, and that’s barely scratching the surface.

Add in his drug use and what is likely tertiary syphilis, as if everything else wasn’t bad enough.

Malignant narcissism alone is an incurable mental illness. He’s never worked an honest day in his life and seems to think he’s entitled to cheat everyone who is stupid enough to work for him.

The guy is a moron, appears to read at a 4th grade level, and seems to be losing his ability to keep a train of thought, even in simple sentences. His vocabulary is increasingly small, even when praising himself.

He’s not just wetting his diapers, he’s shitting himself uncontrollably.

He’s increasingly unable to stand upright or walk normally, and there are countless photos of him leaning forward in a bizarre fashion—a hallmark of frontotemporal dementia.

I’ve transcribed for psychiatrists and have seen many Parkinson’s patients. Tremor or no, I’ll believe it when he starts staring into space, shuffling like he barely remembers how to walk, and drools with his mouth hanging open. I don’t think he’s there, and I’ve not seen complaints of Parkinson’s patients being violent or vindictive. More likely, they’re quite passive and easily led.

IMHO, he’s far past his expiration date and I’ll be really disappointed if he doesn’t stroke out soon and put us all out of our misery.

[milestogo]

16. Oh, he's definitely got a boatload of diagnoses

but he won't admit to any of them and he's got a lot of help in hiding them. It's hard to parse out the medical from the psychological. But an underlying medical condition that is progressing might exacerbate the other symptoms.

[CountAllVotes]

18. he's imagining things

That's all part of it. Very sad really.

Your life is a living hell as you don't know is going on. Nightmares and screaming in your sleep This went on for many years before the diagnosis was made!

[TommyT139]

19. Whether it is or isn't, the speed abuse doesn't help

People who long-term history of using amphetamines have a roughly 60% increase in chances of getting Parkinson's. It seems to be about the release/uptake system of dopamine, which makes sense.

20. That is very interesting.

[vapor2]

22. I say it's just brain rot

[Phoenix61]

23. Lewis Body Dementia

An unfortunate combination of Parkinson’s and dementia.

[milestogo]

24. Lewy Body Dementia

That's what Robin Williams had. Its really horrible and incurable.

[JustAnotherGen]

26. My mom.was diagosed

February last year - gone June 5th.

His right leg dragging is similar to my mom's.

[Phoenix61]

27. I'm so sorry for your loss. It's a horrible disease.

My friend’s dad had it for years. When it started he got really paranoid. Thought there were people living in the attic… the house didn’t have an attic.

[CountAllVotes]

29. My late husband's brother died of Lewy Body

was that ever ugly.

He was in Ireland and was being cared for by THREE people, not just one disabled old wife.

I was preparing to leave this hell hole to get him the care he deserved!

It didn't work out that way as he fell and broke his hip and died not long after that as he failed t recover. He was 85 years old.

Of the ten kids, seven have died with dementia so it is genetic.

Thanks for the

30. "when I look at him, I see a dry drunk"

I have heard this at so many AA meetings this year.

[Vogon_Glory]

32. I don't think he drinks or not, but some

qualifiers-for-AlAnon do show what I think of as Alcoholic behavior. It’s kinda scary for those of us who never became drinks. It’s like those very old “This could be YOU” commercials from decades gone by.
