In this slide show guide you state that you can only choose three tags. In the beginning when my posts were not showing up in the all discussions tab I finally figured out that I was choosing more than three tags. Nothing prevented me from doing that, but it did keep my posts from showing up in the "all discussions" view.

I tend to have many tabs open in my browser. Once in a while, the Community Chat Room won't let me reply because it says I'm not logged in. But when I try to log in, it says my ID is not recognized. If I fiddle around and close some tabs, sometimes I can get the login to work. Maybe I inadvertently exceeded the 3 tag limit??? I haven't figured out a reliable way to address this login problem.

How can I download a copy of this user guide? Or better still, do you have a PDF version?
Thanks,
Ed

Hello everyone. This is Dennis,

My 86 year old mother recently 12/23 "graduated" out of the Hospice care, after 16 months. Her improvement is remarkable.

Attributed to adjustments in medication back in August 2023. She is believed to be suffering from "LATE" dementia.
She is scrambled in speech, is 7B on the Fast scale. Yet remains a beautiful personality (Most of the Time)

Our Dr has prescribed 1- Donepizil 5mg each night. We are awaiting to see if this improved "Sundowner" difficult behaviors at night.

Hs anyone been able to recognize "LATE" dementia in their loved ones?
Limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE)
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/dementia/in-depth/late/art-20534312

If so, what have you personally discovered as to the differences in behaviors as opposed to clinical Alzheimer's?
Have any of you adjusted medications and seen improvement?

"LATE" seems to be a new diagnosis, not to much history out there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbic-predominant_age-related_TDP-43_encephalopathy

Just a shout out:

Thanks Dennis

Hello. I'm new here. I'm just having a look around. I've been caring for my uncle for 8 yrs. While I feel overwhelmed sometimes I've recently been facing a new problem. My 89 year old grandmother has been suffering problems lately. Her vision appears to be declining and she's already had two minor falls. She says she's fine and yells at me when I suggest otherwise. I don't know what to do. I'm at my wits end. I'm scared of what's going to happen.
