Check out #neurologist Dr. Ibrahim Imam's 300 books that he considers essential reading for #doctors. When his review of Finding the Right Words came out, I was honored, & during this World #Alzheimer's Month, he reposted his list (& will repost his reviews). Anyway, several books on #dementia are included: mine, Daniel Gibb's Tattoo on my Brain, Tia Powell's Dementia Reimagined. Also see books re: the #brain & emotions, #gender, #empathy, etc.

I was so honored to talk w/Andrew Karesa, CEO of blueBell Village, about trying to find the words that would capture my love for my father & the grief he & we experienced as he lost words. W/Dr. Bruce Miller, #neurologist at #UCSF & founder of the Memory & Aging Center, I think I came close. To those of you whose lives have been touched by #dementia, I hope our conversation is helpful. Here is the trailer. The full episode drops on August 19th.

Happy birthday to #neurologist Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852 - 1934), here in front of Purkinje and granule cells from a pigeon, based on one of his own drawings! Cajal &Golgi won the Nobel in 1906, “in recognition of their work on the structure of the nervous system”. He was as much of an artist as he was a scientist & his 100s of drawings are still used for teaching purposes.

OMG! It's so freaking enjoyable to #edit a #journal article for a highly experienced, funny-as-hell #neurologist as I listen to Mozart, see sun shining in, and feel the spring breeze coming in. I think I wanna do this when I grow up!

Can someone with some good training in #biochemistry study the human brain without being a #neurologist or relying on a neurologist?
Yes, you can. I am taking on this impossible task of understanding a human brain without reading from any #neurology textbooks. Instead, I am using #Copilot as my personal #learning mate to understand the human senses, brain functionalities, #cognition, #perception, ...

This very nice review of my #memoir w/ #neurologist Dr. BruceMiller just came to my attention. Here's a bit from the last paragraph: "This unlikely author team has Miller explain brain function in lay terms, while Weinstein shares her love of literature — a unique partnership of science & art. But despite its grim subject it’s not a downer, rather offering useful information to help fend off this dreaded disease.

Today is my #memoir's 4th birthday. It wasn't until I wrote the preface that I realized writing the #book was my way of sitting #shiva & saying #kaddish for my father who died of early-onset #Alzheimer's. Dr. Bruce Miller, #neurologist @ #UCSF, sat shiva w/me. I will be eternally grateful.
Acknowledging that I'll never recover from how my father died has strangely liberated me to remember him (w/ and w/o the disease- I had forgotten the latter) & help others.

My #memoir about my beloved dad, Jerry, turns 4 this week. Please consider buying it from #JohnsHopkinsUP or Bookshop.org. Here is my website with links to both. #UCSF #neurologist, dear friend, and co-author Dr. Bruce Miller explains what happens to the brain when #dementia strikes. The #book has a lot to say about #grief, #neurology, and #literature, especially #MobyDick. Readers have said they have found it helpful. If you read it, I hope you do, too.

I learned from a video my friend @jammcq sent me (https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16ycMqFSBe/?mibextid=wwXIfr #DrRachelBarr) that there are things they can do for you, possibly, if you have #Parkinsons (The video isn't about Parkinson's. It's just mentioned.) One of the possible treatments is #LDopa.
Evidence points to me having medication-induced Parkinson's (I'm not an expert, so this is not a diagnosis). Possibly related symptoms include shaking hands, poor balance (some related falling), a few other things. The shaking hands is very annoying. Worse for me, even, than the balance issues. The shaking absolutely affects my typing, especially typing passwords; and interferes greatly with other activities that are important to me. I don't drink (especially since being on a GLP1), but I'm kinda terrified of being pulled over and given a field-sobriety test (Probably unrealistic as I haven't been pulled over in decades).
Months ago I scheduled an appointment for myself with a (new to me) #Neurologist. That appointment is finally coming up. Hopefully I will have more answers then. Boy it would be fantastic if my hands stopped shaking.

Here is a review of my #memoir about my father's early-onset #Alzheimer's & the unbearable grief of watching a loved one die of #dementia. #Neurologist Dr. Bruce Miller wrote it w/me & explains the brain health (or sickness) behind the clinical presentations I saw: word-finding difficulties, spatial disorientation, behavioral anomalies, memory loss. The 1st chapter is on diagnosis. If this resonates, I am sorry. Readers have said the book has helped. https://bookshop.org/shop/WeAreHFC

Thank you #EastChinaNormalUP for translating into Chinese Finding the Right Words: A Story of Literature, Grief, and the Brain, which was originally published in English by #JohnsHopkinsUniversityPress. #Neurologist Dr. BruceMiller and I are so honored, and I know my father, Jerry, for whom the book is written, would have wanted his experience known so that it might help others. He was a wonderful human being -- when he had his memory and when he didn't.

On 2.21, I along w/#UCSF #neurologist Bruce Miller & Dr. Luis Martinez will be speaking in an #Alzheimer'sAssociation webinar, "Narrative Showcase: Dementia Stories for Impact." We will share our stories of the #grief, inseparable from the #love, that comes w/watching someone you love suffer in the way #dementia causes suffering. We hope that telling those stories, through writing, helps those who are suffering as they watch, care, grieve. Here is the link to register.

Because we know everything Trump says about others is a projection, his comments about Blacks, Hispanics, and Jews needing to get their heads examined makes clear that he knows he needs his own head examined. He knows he is sick. Donald, get thee to a #neurologist and a #psychiatrist and an #internist, and while you're at it, release your medical records.
