PLEASE NOTE: Even though this blog is now dormant there are many useful, insightful posts. Scroll back from the end or forward from the beginning. Also, check out my writer's blog.

I Love My mouse

This is the third of three postings about the recent possibility of using a skin cancer drug to help reverse Alzheimer's.

I have nick named Gregory (if only in my mind,) MOUSE.

On one hand it reminds me of the adorable, yet complex character in the "Tales of the City" by Amistad Maupin.

It also is a quick way to keep awareness of what it must be like to experience what Gregory is going through based on the above study's mouse's inability to do something as innate, and simple as building a nest.

Mouse. My little mouse.

For more than three decades, Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the Cityhas blazed its own trail through popular culture—from a groundbreaking newspaper serial to a classic novel, to a television event that entranced millions around the world. The first of six novels about the denizens of the mythic apartment house at 28 Barbary Lane, Tales is both a sparkling comedy of manners and an indelible portrait of an era that changed forever the way we live.
