Brava to Kristen Welker for maintaining her cool and her reportorial backbone in an interview with a rude and bullying interview subject who could not marshall a single fact in response to a civil question.

BREAKING: ADVANCED ALZHEIMER’S PATIENT REGAINED SPEECH, MEMORY, AND BLADDER CONTROL AFTER SINGLE PSILOCYBIN DOSE An 80-year-old woman with advanced Alzheimer’s — who had barely spoken for YEARS — experienced RAPID and SUSTAINED improvement after taking 5g of psilocybin mushrooms. During the acute phase, she entered a prolonged deep sleep-like state with profuse sweating. ~19 hours later, she spontaneously started talking again for HOURS — sharing detailed autobiographical memories she hadn’t expressed in years. Over the following days, her family reported improved memory, walking, emotional connection, speech, and regained bladder control. After 1 month, bladder control REMAINED RESTORED, and she was still functionally improved compared with baseline. While this is just one published case report, the implications are enormous given that there are currently NO approved medications known to produce effects like this in advanced Alzheimer’s. These findings urgently need replication. For millions watching a parent or loved one disappear to Alzheimer’s, even the possibility of restoring lost function warrants serious scientific investigation.
