17. He isn't "ill" in the sense of something like cancer, Parkinson's etc.

He is receiving infusions to try to slow the absolutely obvious progression of Alzheimer's. His hands have monthly bruises from infusions of Leqembi. These infusions are administered inside the WH at the mini-hospital they have on premises. But the protocol for that drug says you have to get a brain MRI before the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th and 14th infusions to check for brain bleeding and swelling.

It was exactly 7 months ago that he was last at Walter Reed. He is having his 14th infusion, so he has to go to Reed for the MRI.

This is becoming perfectly obvious, and we should stop acting like it isn't happening.

I don't know what happens after the 14th infusion. I guess they keep giving the monthly doses and hope for the best. But if he isn't showing any bleeding or swelling, then I guess they don't schedule any more MRIs.
