Thank you for everything that you have created

This post is dedicated to a friend of mine whose mother has Alzheimer's.

A UPI article entitled "Caffeine reverses memory impairment" reveals the following:
"Memory impairment was reversed in aged mice, bred to develop symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, after they were given caffeine, U.S. researchers said.
Researchers at the University of South Florida said back-to-back studies show caffeine significantly decreased abnormal levels of the protein linked to Alzheimer's disease -- both in the brains and in the blood of mice exhibiting symptoms of the disease."

Recently, a friend told me that her mother had Alzheimer's disease. I hope a cure will be found soon and that her parents will both have a refuah shleima for their various ills.

I just read an inspiring article entitled "A Mother's Legacy" by Yitta Halberstam. -Definitely worth a read.

After hearing my friend's news and reading the above article, I couldn't help but be grateful for my parents and hope that they will continue to inspire me ad meah veesrim.

Todah Hashem - Thank you Hashem for my parents, family, health and friends.
