It's so sad, I'm sorry for him, and all of you.

I'm going to be really harsh here and demand double tax.I have a great uncle with dementia. He doesnt remember where he is but he feels like he should know where he is. I can not imagine the confusion he is suffering. The other day he had a breakdown and we had to drive to his house where he lives with his ex wife. It all started when he was taken to the hospital for the first time. Before that he made himself breakfast every morning and took care of him self. He quit driving probably last year or the year before that. When we went to calm him down he was crying and saying he just wanted somebody to put a bullet through his head. I feel so bad for him. 94 years is a long time. He declined very quickly also. Now he just wants to be dead. People dont seem to do well for very long after they lose the will to live.
I agree. I had a great grandmother that lived on her own until age 90. She lived a few more years in assisted living but she really just wanted to be dead.Often I fear we are prolonging death, not life. With humans especially.
I'll help you out:Don't worry. I got some more poctures the other day. Were just saying how it felt bad to prolong human life. I am sorry. Here we go. Well. Now I can not get pictures to load. Like my thing at the top is completely gray. Dang it! Now I owe more tax! I will pay up when I get this sorted out.
Have another one for good measure:
Good to know there is actual research into this. I based my assessment of reverting to wild-type on other species I know about. I will have to read this thoroughly later (there is a LOT there). Just skimming, it looks like they really did sequence a bunch of different breeds and landraces all over the world.regarding the 'proper chickens' question, this is alarming: "Muir et al. (2008) were the first to assess the genetic diversity of several inbred lines of chicken (n = 2580) using a commercial SNP genotyping array. They showed that more than 50% of the ancestral genetic diversity was lost in the commercial lines compared to the experimental lines and standard breeds.
