they tried some new drugs or something and now there is nothing more they can do. They certainly can’t say they cured her. Although, maybe it will turn out that she doesn’t have Alzheimer’s at all and the original thoughts were all wrong.
If they decide it’s not Alz. then I think the are doing a huge disservice to the people who have it or are caregivers for a loved one who has it. If they claimed to have cured her of it, the writers need to be fired.
and the treatment she’s getting there is something that is going to keep it from progressing as it usually does. That would mean we’d still see her little slip-ups but she won’t go into a full-blown withdrawal into herself. That would allow her to continue on with the show and still give us the treatment of Alzheimers we deserve to see.
I think Carolne’s departure was set up to give Bo a credible reason for leaving. Otherwise if they were going to do the ALZ plotline it would have stayed in Salem.
