the big a is now replacing the big c
more americans are beginning to worry about getting
the big a-alzhiemers than are worried about getting
the big c-cancer
as the big a is the only one of the top ten diseases that
kills people that you cant do anything to prevent it
this is where the fight against cancer was several years ago
all the childhood leukemia is almost 100% curable now
so many cancers are caught early now that they can be
treated and cured or controlled
the awareness of signs and symptoms of cancer are
everywhere for people to read and think about
everywhere for people to read and think about
so the big a is in its infancy compared to the big c
a lot of research is going on to try to identify what really
causes the big a and what you can do to prevent it
then a lot of research is being done to identify people
at a younger age who are risk for the big a
there is a lot of research being done to find treatments
to prevent this disease and to treat this disease at
earlier stages (like mine)
the study that i am in in dallas the alzheimers disease
nucleoimaging initiative (adni-2) is a study that is looking at tools
to identify people earlier by following people who dont have the
disease, people real early with the disease, people with slightly
more symptoms with the disease and people with
full blown alzhiemers
nucleoimaging initiative (adni-2) is a study that is looking at tools
to identify people earlier by following people who dont have the
disease, people real early with the disease, people with slightly
more symptoms with the disease and people with
full blown alzhiemers
it looks at genetic tests, dna and rna analysis, spinal fluid analysis
for tau protein and beta amyloid, pet scans for glucose metabolism,
pet scans for beta amyloid, and neuropsychological exams over
a period of 5 years
this study will provide a lot of useful data that can be used to
catch people early and hopefully eventually do something about
this terrible disease
lets erase or dim the big a

stage 4 is where glenn campbell is probably at or he may be late
stage 3
he is about to do a tour for his new album even though he has
the big a
stage 4-5 is where my close relative is at
