Compensation for Missing Brain Cells

I do think that my husband with his Vascular Dementia and Alzheimer's compensates well. I do think that Joe with his Frontal Lobe Dementia and Alzheimer's compensates well. Joe blogs and testifies in court.  Both men are fighting. They have got to be using brain cells from somewhere. I would like to see the researchers follow both men around.
A new article from the Alzheimer's Weekly hints at compensation. Use healthy brain cells to compensate, it reads here.

My husband puts up signs so he can help determine which bin is for newspapers and which is for glass and plastic. He takes notes on what the day holds and checks with the calendar. He thinks ahead about our camping and how the camping electrical circuits can be fixed. He recalls good times with Jake and Sally and wants to know when we will see them again. "When are we going to Disney", he wants to know.

God bless our sweethearts!
