OK, first time I have ever seen that TLA used here, or in fact anywhere else

All I have at hand to respond to is what you have posted here, and, I
quote:

I don't mean to be dismissive or unsympathetic for what you may have gone
through with your grandma.

You don't tell us very much, other than that you "work in a research
group, investigating Parkinson's Disease associated with dementia."

The "cu" tells me, an old school dinosaur, that you are web-savvy, and
that if you'd taken a minute to do a google search, you'd have found
enough to occupy your interest for a good, long while.

Now, I apologize if I jumped to an erroneous conclusion. I've been known
to do that, on occasion.

This group is mostly composed of caregivers who are, or were, not long
ago, actively coping with the often unimaginable and terrific stressors of
dementia caregiving. Please excuse any shortness of reply. Some of us have
been hoeing this row for 10 or more years.

And, I do sincerely hope the Lewy Body site is helpful to you, in your
research. It really is quite good. If you have the fortitude to pursue.

I do wish you great good luck, Oliver, and will be more than willing to
append, if you so desire. I would not want to discourage anyone who may
ultimately be able to help our LOs.

Crabbier-by-the-day,
Deborah
