Living with Early Onset Alzheimers
Donation protected
What I likely have. (100% diagnosis can only be done with brain biopsy, so they try to rule out other neuro conditions / watch the symptoms etc.). It's a form of Early Onset Alzheimer's called Hippocampal Sparring. It doesn't affect my memory/intellect etc. It affects my processing/ concentration/ comprehension etc. I published an article about my condition here. Cracked IS a comedy website, but they also publish serious articles. Plus they are VERY THOROUGH about the article having accurate information. It took almost 8 months to publish that article because the review process is insane. I've had an easier time getting published in a scientific journal than I did on Cracked.
So, that's my "main story". I post free music and art as an extra "Thank you" to you that subscribe, comment, share, or donate. And, really in that order... Donations obviously help because disability doesn't provide enough to live off of let alone have any kind of "life". But, whether it's a bum begging for$ for booze or Oprah buying a house, the only difference in EVERYONE'S life is the # of zeros at the end of our bills, homes, expenses, etc.. HOWEVER a comment/subscription/ share helps me emotionally(Plus YOU get free music and art!). Last time I looked,Amazon doesn't sell boxes of "kindness". So, even if you can't spare a penny or don't want to leave a comment, just subscribe and enjoy some free music and art and now that I found the rewards program, well enjoy the goofy ones I'll be putting there! Update is below the art / music and I kind of do things differently here, where I post the 'updates' on main page and archive the old ones. I might change that later.
June 7th. (cleaned up my 'story' and moved the long one to archives. I just discovered the 'rewards' program so going to post some rewards beyond all of the free music and art below!)
Here's a painting I did last night (I couldn't sleep so I just laid in bed with my tablet trying to doze off and well, didn't. Insomnia's a bitch but I'm used to it. and this is what came out while trying to sleep but doing something rather than toss and turn.

Here's "House of the Rising Sun". Been 20+ years since I played it. I Messed around for like 10 min, then taped it.
Anyway, I've been in financial hell ever since my tablet that has my entire schedule/doctors/contacts/ everything... broke ( then the replacement broke...) PLUS my phone broke (twice)/had to pay for my meds due to new laws, and just getting slammed left and right financially that I am just drowning right now. I can't even begin to explain everything let alone process it, but it will work out in the end, one way or another. Just have to keep on fighting. If you enjoyed these, please share /comment/subscribe/or donate what you can spare.
May whichever God or Higher Power you believe in bless you as much as you bless me!
