My wife's grandfather had dimentia, which I still believe was brought on by
overmedication in the crummy nursing home he was in. He was a demanding
guy, and I think they couldn't deal with it, and then overmedicated him to
keep him quiet. It worked all too well. Once he had the problem, he didn't
last 3 months. It was very sad at the end. David

David,
Dementia units tend to be somewhere between assisted living and=20
nursing homes in mnay regsards but with added features to make sure=20
residents don't wander off. Alzheimer's is perhaps the most=20
well-known but there are other diseases causing dementia.
But I've never heard of one with AK-47s. But then I live in a blue=20

P.S. If you find yourself needing a padded room, there's no need to=20

bounce for a while.
