On Aug of '09 my rl mother was diagnosed with dementia a form of alzheimer's disease. I had been taking care of her up until February of this year when she had a UTI, a urinary tract infection, and was sent to the hospital. She stayed for a week and was released to a care center not far from me. She remains there today as I can not take care of her at home anymore. Today, I am currently looking for a job and new place to live as I have to give up my mother's house to keep her where she is. Currently I am looking for work and a new place to live.

Rage quit FTW!!!!

I'm rage quitting Second Life. Let me explain.... It all started with Estarn Kenyon my co-club owner. He has Asperger syndrome, which seems to be a social problem of his.

Dementia

Dementia (taken from Latin, originally meaning "madness", from de- "without" + ment, the root of mens "mind") is a serious loss of cognitive ability in a previously unimpaired person, beyond what might be expected from normal aging. It may be static, the result of a unique global brain injury, or progressive, resulting in long-term decline due to damage or disease in the body. Although dementia is far more common in the geriatric population, it may occur in any stage of adulthood. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dementia My rl mother has it and I'm taking care of her. I'll explain more later.
