Rose has been getting the Perispinal Etanercept (Enbrel) for four weeks now, and has shown miraculous improvement. The “before” videos were all taken in February 2008, and the “after” videos start on March 17, 2008. The last few weeks before her injection, she would hardly say a word all day, just sitting there with a blank expression on her face and then just fall asleep. The “experts” say this doesn’t work; take a look for yourself. My mom is coming back! Please share this with EVERYONE you know, we need to get the word out to get this fast tracked through the FDA so that insurance will cover it! Please let me know your comments and questions here, and Please also join our forum at alzheimers.infopop.cc (Enbrel for Alzheimer’s) To get to Dr. Tobinicks Website: www.nrimed.com Thanks, Felicia McColl (famc17@yahoo.com)
