Letter: Waiting for Alzheimer's nasal spray to hit the market

Now what? I'm 84, retired, in perfect health, non-smoker, non-drug addict, non-alcoholic, safe driver, enjoyed three careers (welder, computer guy, salesman), fantastic wife, kids, grandkids and great-grandkids. I stay aware of my surroundings, local and global news. I believe in the power of prayer and angels.

I have seen a lot of angel-inspired heroes. A few of my favorites are Harry Truman, George Patton, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Martin Luther King Jr., mom and just about every lady on earth. They all set goals and got work done. By the way, my wife sure is good looking. She is only 78.

Here's my problem. I'm getting bored. I need a job or go nuts. I could be a journalist. My goal would be to convince all to end some or all of the hell on earth that I have witnessed or seen in the news in my life including senseless wars, addictions, obesity (earth's no. 1 killer), depression (earth's most expensive disability), domestic violence, Alzheimer's, heart disease, cancer, COVID, child abuse, racketeering — because every person deserves a chance to enjoy all of life's great adventures.

I hope to be available for work this spring after phase 4 of the trials for Protollin for Alzheimer's is completed and for sale. My wife's memory is slipping. She needs a squirt in her nose. Currently, I'm doing all of the housework, yardwork, bookkeeping, shopping, etc.

Millions of women and men are waiting on that nasal spray to hit the market.
