? ? [ music ] ? ? welcome back today we're transforming your health with columbia st. mary's. today what you need to know about dementia and why it is

possible. >> disorders such as dementia and alzheimers are not a normal part of the aging process. dr. peter leo is with columbia st. mary's and is here with more on the typical aging issues and the signs of more serious problem. good to have you here. >> this is what people worry about. if we become more forgetful, can't remember where our keys are or don't remember certain how do you differentiate? >> having a difficulty with memory. forgetting names of things. that's part of normal aging. i think what we have to be concerned about is when it starts to interfere with your day-to-day functioning and getting in the way of you doing things is when you start to kind of be more concerned about it. >> uh-huh. >> a lot of people will wonder what the difference is between what you described as a normal aging process and the sign of a disorder or disease.

interference. so when you start having more difficulties with balancing your checkbook or forgetting bills overdue bills things like that, getting more confused using appliances. >> like a microwave. >> like a microwave exactly. ploats are so complicated i -- remotes are so complicated i use that a little less. gets in the way of you functioning day-to-day. >> so even if thinking about dates or things like tuesday, it's more i don't know what the season is or the time of year is that a bigger kind of issue? >> it could be dates. disorientation of dates could be part of it. but if it doesn't come back to you quickly and you can't orient what day it is pretty quickly that's probably an issue. >> i'm fascinated to know who it is that notices the problem. is it often a spouse or significant other, adult children or the person

people. definitely children, adult children are somebody who is a little concerned about mom or dad especially, if they don't see them on a day-to-day basis. if though haven't seen them for a month or two and come back and feel things are off. that's a way we get referrals. people as well noticing things are more difficult and not quite as sharp as they used to be. >> uh-huh. >> is it genetic. is it something if you know someone in your fam issues that you should be concerned for yourself or family? >> yeah, there is a genetic component to it like most things. but what we know it is relatively smaller than i think people think. if you have a relative who has alzheimer's your chances are a little higher than other folks. but you know really the genetics make up 20 to 25% of the risk factor and the other risk factors are modifiable. so things we can work on and improve.

>> what do you suggest someone should do if they are concerned about a loved one who has memory or seems to have memory issues? >> i think the first place is to start with your general practitioner. your primary care physician and start that discussion with them. there is a number of things that can cause memory problems that might be a little bit in excess of normal aging such as medications. so medication side effects things of that nature. your primary care can look over and figure out. also there is some deficiencies tngs like that that can contribute to hypothyroid can contribute to early memory difficulties. those are reversible memory problems. and so to start with your primary care physician, see the initial assessment see if there is something that can be ruled out that can be causing it. >> if your primary says i think you need to see a

evaluations do you do and what is covered and uncovered by insurance. >> typically they are all covered by insurance. it's a comprehensive evaluation. i will snd 45 to an hour talking to the patient and a family member. we like it when a spouse or a child comes in. sometimes especially with dementia people don't have a good insight into the issues they have having. it's helpful to have someone else there to the appointme then we'll excuse the family member we do one-on-one testing. problem solving, language all of the thinking skills your brain does. >> is it a possible for someone to hide their dementia or memory problems? >> people can compensate pretty well sometimes. >> writing things down. >> using notes. those are things again as you get older you will rely more on.

routines too typically can do well. if you have the same routine. older folks that aren't on a lot of medications or don't have a lot of changes to their health they have lived in the same home the last 60 years their routine is set. there is not a lot of learning they can compensate pretty well especially early on. >> lastly too, is there a way to stop it? is there anything you can do when working with a professional? >> there is medications that can be helpful to delay the progress of it or help somewhat. and that's why you know early identification is important to if those medications are appropriate the earlier the better as far as getting on them. i think the most important things are just behavioral things we can do day-to-day. exercise, you know eating a healthy diet, keeping yourself you know engaged cognitively engaged. >> read through the word problems. >> puzzles. keeping your mind sharp being socially engaged doing things socially is good for yr brain

evaluation and diagnosis early. so to contact co columbia st. mary's call 41 (414)332-3627. there is the website as well. >> great to meet you thank you. coming up life insurance for your baby. and next do you have what they call floaters in your eyes. it can be a really annoying problem, but you do not have to live with it. of the state-of-the-art eye care center where they have a simple procedure for that and other eye

[ chuckles ] if america's favorites - burgers, tacos and chili could taste just as great made with turkey. thousands stepped into the jennie-o tasting booth

now it's your turn to make the switch. welcome back to the morning blend. there are some incredible new advances in eye care. now patients are able to heal easier and much quicker from treatment, for problemsuc glaucoma, cataracts and cornual implants. there is now even a fix for eye floaters. >> because they are annoying. recently molly met a patient that feels like he got his life back after a inpatient eye procedure. take a look. >> dr. paul this is an impressive place. there is a lot going on here and a lot of different things you do right? >> it is a big place.

here and i think we need that because, we have a lot of technology, a lot of technology that we are using for helping patients with quality of life. people who need eyeglasses from general well visits to those who are other conditions like diabetes or macular degeneration. we have a full array of technology and personnel. >> you have been around for a long time. people know you in this community.

any one part of the eye there is a new technology that might be advancing in the next year so to keep up with that is difficult. so it's important for us to keep involved. >> how critical is research as part of developing and staying on top of new technology? >> it's incredibly important as well. that's one of the reasons i'm so excited to be here today. i did my training out of duke. back then, teaching and being around other providers, other colleagues to talk about new technology. so when of my first priorities was to establish a full-time research center. we have full-time research staff which has really helped us now. we have been part of studies to bring new technologies. new devices to the glaucoma market. we provi new lasers for people who have floaters. for cataract surgery. we get involved in these new studies that has allowed us to offer new technologies sometimes before others because we are involved in the research as

provide as part of that? >> we have a try we call first experience, first in quality, first in care. the experience is important, but if you don't have the quality of people, whether it's technicians your receptionists, your providers everybody has to be sessional. we don't want to minimize the importance of the human part, the human part of medicine. you have to have quality people working with you as well. care, the quality people, have to have been in p on our patients. at the end of the day what drives me and the other doctors in the staff you see that patient coming into your office and they are happy and smiling they say doctor thank you for making high life better that's what it is all about. >> can you show me some of the latest advances? >> absolutely would love to. >> all right here is one of our diagnostic rooms we use to help us determine if people need certain surgeries what to do and if they are safe enough to have surgery done. for instance, the machine right

and documents if there is any problems on the back of the eye. we also have a machine over here it helps determine where the problem in the vision is. is it the surface or the cataract. if it's astigmatism or other conditions. >> floater removal it's a procedure that helps get rid of floaters people have described. sometimes they can be simple or sometimes large masses that affect their daily functioning. we have a office it is minimally invasive takes five to ten minutes that can remove those floaters. right now we're here with john, one of our patient who is is going to have a laser for floater removal. >> tell me about it. >> what kind of impact do those floaters have on your daily life? >> well, my life i couldn't read the newspaper and the tv was all like blurry. at night i couldn't drive because they were real like

so it really impacts your life. >> and we did one session not too long ago to take care of the floaters and what kind of impact after that one session even? what kind of difference did that make? >> after that one session after i got home i could read the newspaper. there was no pain to having it done. and he did a wonderful job. >> hellen had cataract surgery done by us not too longing a, but even after the cataract surgery s floaters. she's still having an issue with reading, driving and lots of daily functions. now that we did the laser floor floaters you are saying you are much better as well. what was it like after having the floater removal in terms of daily functioning. >> i'm able to read. can i see numbers clearly. i work as an accountant. that is critical for me. >> wonderful. was the laser difficult to do? l.

the procedure itself only takes a few seconds. afterwards just waiting for the dilation to go away then i'm back to normal. it was fantastic. >> no contacts. >> someone says i got floaters or even i have an eye condition in general. they don't know what can be done what do you say to them? >> i is a go see dr. paul. because it made such difference in my life. >> both patients really had life-changing care there at the eye centers of racine and coo yora. two -- kenosha. two centers there. to make an appointment and find out more about all of the their state-of-the-art technology, their advance services for their eyes and a free lasik

i love my job. you should see dave. welcome about to the morning ba. i always heard life insurance is a good idea especially if you have kids. i never heard about taking out a baby policy. why is it a sound investment. matthew holbrook is a representative with country financial and he brought his daughter. i'm talking quietly because she's so cute look at that. >> say hi bud. >> she's asleep. i love her outfit. that is so cute. >> mickey over there picked it out. i did not pick this out. >> your wife did a good job with that. this is your first child. >> this is our first. >> so you're not sleeping right? >> not too much. sleep deprived, past two weeks is probably what i would say we are. >> it's a real test of patience. i will give you tips on sleeping later. >> thank you. >> let's talk about things

having a newborn or expecting a newborn. i never heard of a child life policy. you say get it right away. >> and she already has one actually. with me in the line of work i work i got it set up right away. it's providing guaranteed ininsure ability. she'll have a paid policy by the time she is 20-years-old and have the ability at 22, every three years up to eight times to get more life insurance for her at $50,000 a time. overall $400,000 with no underwriting whatsoever. i have seen a lot of times with families what happens kids do develop a few problems where they are not insurable so they can't get those policies, so you are getting them a paid up policy by the time they are 20 and giving them cash value. by the time she gets to college she'll have a big cash account she can dip into. >> so smart. it's just planning ahead probably not that expensive either right?

so. >> i like that comparison there. that helps put it in perspective. >> uses like a 529 plan which is a college savings vehicle for parents, using those two things by the time they get to college they have plenty of cash to pay for college. pay for room and board thicks ts like that. >> it's a really smart way to set them up. incredible thing to give a child as a way of giving them that safe and security place. >> for them the cash value the actual policy it continues to grow even though there is no more money going into it. >> along with the baby policy like you just mentioned in this protection you give even for a newborn, you also recommend that parents get more coverage? >> yeah i mean, now that we have our first kid here of course we need more coverage. if there is only a single parent with her, there is college savings that's just out the window right away. a lot of people do not have enough coverage whatsoever. >> and if you did it through your employer is that enough? >> i would say no.

three times your income. a lot of times you make $50,000 a year, that's $150,000 that isn't enough to pay for the mortgage let alone the college tuition. >> term life i think of when you are growing up you rent an apartment. that's what term is. you are not building any equity, but you need a place to live. with term you have a need, the life insurance, but you are renting it is a lot cheaper with the whole life policy think of that as building equity so you buy a home. with that you are building equity with that it continues to grow you are putting money into it. it is a little more expensive, but you own the policy. the cash that builds inside it you have that tax free distribution you can use it before age 5 9 1/2 whatever you want to do. say you want to buy another property you can dip into that savings within there. >> what do you suggest is the best way for people to have a meeting about this.

confusion. maybe their kids are older and they are wondering is it a good idea to get them a policy. >> just email me. a lot of people have a little phone phobia especially about financial planning. if email is easiest way send me an email saying what you have going on. i will give you that phone call take the nerve out of the problem there. >> i like that. i think it is kind of a scary step to take to just ask those questions. and to share your own personal judge it. >> and i want them to get to know me first and our little family we have growing here. >> how about having a baby that is not even crying. >> right this is perfect. [laughter] >> you'll take this. >> she didn't sleep last night, but she's sleeping on tv. >> while your getting ready right? >> we're going to share the information so people can reach out and contact you matthew. good job. good job genivive i'm so proud

with country financial. (414)332-3918 and i love your suggestion to email you. i think it's a lot easier for people to do that. you can go to matthew.holbrook@country financial.com. (414)332-3137. great to see you. congratulations. >> thank you. right now we're going to head to tiff. i wonder how many people were rocking i was rocking the do you think you're a good driver? research shows two out every three say they are excellent or very good. are you as skilled as you think you are? ester bloom is the senior editor at the bill fold and is here to talk about a new challenge that measures how welou y are doing on the road. good morning ester. >> good morning. >> thanks for being here. think people have seen the commercials and heard of snapshot that's what we are really talking about. most drivers think they are excellent or they are very good.

as we think we are? >> it's great. snapshot is offering you a chance to actually get data to back up your claim that maybe you are the best driver in your family for example. it's really simple. it plugs into your car and it monitors a few key things about how you drive. and monitors when you drive, it monitors how often you drive and whether you ride your brakes. it does not like hard braking. when you are in your car with snapshot it will emitt this cute little noise. you not to hit your brakes quite so hard. you can also sign onto the site, check the app to see what your progress looks like on the chart and graphs they offer you. you can see how you improve and how you can keep improving. >> i think it's a great money saving tip. to see if you have improved. help save you money. millennials are a category that is looking to save you money. they are in on using this too.

what other money saving tips do you have? >> absolutely. it saves you money because, if over the course of the time it monitors you, it determines that you are indeed a safe and careful driver, then it rewards you with a lower car insurance payment which is great right. it takes your performance into account and adjusts your rate down proportionately which is great. other things strip a lot of the apps off your phone. there should be a little friction there. the friction is important it keeps you from sending what you shouldn't send, taking the apps offhe phone that make it a little too tempting to order in food several times a week for example. instead a app that helps you pick the right recipes, shop for groceries, bring them home and do the cooking and end up with

eat that might be healthier and save you cash. >> i love that. if people are interested in learning more about snapshot how do they get one for their own car? >> you can go to progressive.com/snapshot. it is easy you can try it for 30 or 45 days before have you to commit. if you don't like it you can toss it. >> good so you don't have to give them the information if you thought you were driving poorly. >> that's right. you can toss it if you want to. >> i love it.yo know you're a bad driver after that you are like all right didn't work. here's where you can get more information it's progressive.com/snapshot i think it is genius. help save yourself money or if you don't think it will save you money don't turn it in. [laughter] all right thanks so much ester. >> thank you. after the break our picture of the day and we'll have your responses to our soundoff. do you find it flattering or
