Dr. Grumpy: "Okay, at your mom's visit 2 months ago, for her Alzheimer's disease, she started Smegapazil. How's she been doing since then?"
Mr. Son: "I'd say she's better. She still goes out for nightly walks, and, you know, we used to get called by neighbors or the police at least 4-5 times a week because she'd gotten lost and they'd found her here or there and we had to go pick her up, but since starting the pills I think that's only happened maybe 3 times, tops."

Poor Mom! She needs a dog or a companion (you know, like a son or daughter) to walk with.
She’s still getting out. Increase the dose to 23mg.
Much better than average response then…
That's OK, once the summer ends, she may not want to walk in the colder weather at all.
"Our insurance company doesn't want to pay for the pills, though. They say it's a lot more economical just to buy her a tracking device."
