Could you please contact Lakewood Gardens in Downey CA in regards to that nutritional program that you are promoting? It is a facility for dementia patients only and I think they could greatly benefit from it. How affordable is this program? I know the facility is one of the lower cost ones around and I hope that won’t prevent them from being able to implement it. Their address is 12055 Lakewood Blvd. Donwey CA. 90242. 562-869-4038.
I placed a man that I was taking care of in there last December. Via use of nutritional supplements, appropriate nutrition, physical and mental activity and avoiding pharmaceuticals he was still only in the early stages of ALZ upon placement,age 90, 20 years after original diagnosis of ALZ. These methods work, I know first hand. They truly do work! I would like to see your nutritional program implemented there at Lakewood so he could continue to benefit from optimal nutritional like I gave him at home.
Will you ever be giving seminars out this way in L.A.? I would love to attend.
Thanks ever so much!
