So, as we’ve discussed over the past few days (check yesterday’s blog, if you want), the FDA approved Aduhelm, the monoclonal antibody that attaches to amyloid. The problem is that there is no clinical data demonstrating this will help alleviate the memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients- despite the FDA approval.

Eleven years I have been posting at this site. That’s how long Cerebrations has been sharing information with you.

I stayed up all Sunday night. And, now my menu is limited to dairy meals for today and tomorrow. Because those are the traditions of the Feast of Weeks, Shvuot.

We’ve been counting since the Pesach (Passover) Seder. (Which, unfortunately for the second year in a row had to be held over Zoom. Since only I was fully vaccinated. This pandemic must go.) 50 days after we were freed from Egypt (Mitzrayim- a place of narrow straits), we were waiting by Mount Sinai (sorry- NOT in the “Sinai Peninsula”, more likely in Saudi Arabia, near an active volcano), to receive the 10 Commandments.

I’m sure most of you are just like me. Petrified to take a flight anywhere (especially if you read my blog yesterday!) and about as scared to board a train (or- heavens to Mergetroid- to even consider a bus). And, that’s NOT because of conditions at the destination- it’s because of conditions of transit.
Can you believe it? Just a week ago, we were released from bondage- at which time we celebrated the Ten Plagues. Dam, Tzfardaya, Kinim.. In English: Blood. Frogs. Lice. Wild Beasts. Pestilence. Boils. Hail. Locusts. Darkness. Slaying of the First-born.

This is going to be a story about what happens when we develop a creative solution to a problem- only to find out that the problem we were solving is now moot. Not because another solution developed, but because the issue is no longer. (Please note- as you will see later- the problem didn’t get corrected; no, the problem went away because extinction occurred first.)
