Image
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, May 7, 2026 -- Licensed clinical psychologist and author Dr. Patricia A. Farrell has published a new article on her Patreon platform, Dr. Farrell Unplugged, offering readers a clear and compassionate look at Lewy body dementia (LBD), the progressive brain disease that ended the life of media pioneer Ted Turner at age 87. Turner, who revealed his LBD diagnosis in 2018, died on May 6, 2026, after nearly a decade of living with the disease. Actor Robin Williams also had LBD, confirmed after his death in 2014.

Someone who has lived through several decades of experience often sees patterns that younger people cannot yet recognize. Research on birth order and sibling development has shown something interesting. Younger siblings frequently develop skills and social awareness earlier because they observe and interact with older siblings who introduce them to new experiences sooner. Studies exploring birth order effects can be reviewed through the ...
