I'm going to re-repeat my Reagan story from 1980...

Edited on Sat Jan-15-11 04:43 PM by PCIntern

I had just finished my clinical years in dental school, graduated, and opened a practice. Among my first patients was a gentleman who was and is a rather well-known mental health professional here in Philly. Reagan had just been elected, it was cold out, and I was generally disgusted.

When the gentleman came in for the third or fourth of his many long appointments for his full-mouth reconstruction, I said to him that what really concerned me about Reagan was that they had run an article about how wherever he goes, he always has a jar of brightly-colored jelly beans. I remarked that we had a guy on our block when I was a kid who was always interested in brightly-colored trash cans - in fact, he had them all over the house and would empty them all day. He wound up with a diagnosis of dementia of some sort - things were much more indistinct in those days.

The Ph.D. looked at me and said, "He's got early Alzheimer's - no question about it. You can see it in his eyes, in his hesitations, and his rote-speech."

We still see each other and talk about the old days and how we had an instant bond from this event.

I had never heard the term "Alzheimer's disease" in 1980. It was just senility. I don't believe it was used outside of academia until a little later.

I'm going to re-re not believe you.

Having said that, give me a president with Alzheimers over an affirmative actioned president any day of the week.

Yes I live in a world where results count, not intentions, or how well meaning the failure's intentions were.

Well, if you're going to continue to insist upon blowing old men, I'm quite certain you've "bonded" with many guys, you effete little glory-holer.

If Reagan had Alzheimer's during his 2nd term what does it say about Mondale losing so badly to a "feeble-minded" Reagan?


Edited to add: this story is BS

Nothing wrong with his mind when I met him in '84.

Reagan wasn't diagnosed until 1994. He would not have been showing significant signs in 1980. DUmpf*ck.

And no mental health pro would say that to some random idiot dental assistant.   DUmpf*ck.

She is forever spinning bouncies that manage to paint herself in the most unprofessional light.  Remember shortly back, something about a muslim young woman?  Of course one of the characters in the play was a black girl.

Ok, so, in 1980 you opened your own practice.  You ain't retired yet?  You must be a sucky dentist.
