SEIZURE RESPONSE DOGS

There have been many reports in the media about dogs helping people with epilepsy in various ways – as faithful companions, as protectors when seizures occur, as warning systems to alert other family members when a child or adult has had a seizure and as being capable of warning their owners before a seizure occurs. 

These reports – especially the ones that suggest that dogs can sense when someone is going to have a seizure - have created a demand for dogs with this skill.  Some kennels and trainers have responded to the demand with promotional materials claiming that they can train dogs to recognize a seizure in advance and to respond appropriately when the seizure occurs.  Such dogs may cost several thousand dollars......full story

Absent Memory Syndrome (AMS)

(PRWEB) -- Absent Memory Syndrome (AMS) has been defined by experts as a mid-life condition. You keep losing your train of thought mid-sentence or you forget where you have left your keys. And the reason? No one knows for sure but it's thought to be due to poor concentration or lack of motivation, tiredness, anxiety or stress rather than the loss of brain cells. Feeling fuzzy headed is also thought to be related to the hormonal ups and downs associated with menopause. Some parts of the brain that are particularly involved with verbal memory are rich in estrogen receptors so there could be a genuine physiological link between hormonal status and brain function.
