Treey if you see this . Elan are working with wyeth are working on something that may help. It is in trials and it may be available in the uk. I'm sure you have heard of it. Called Bapinuzamap (sp) code named by the companies AAB-001. Well worth looking at
I'm going around to the videos and asking all of PTerry's fans out there to go to the website - Match It For Pratchett - to help raise another 11 million for Alzheimers Research.
If all of his fans gave just 1 GBP - roughly 2USD - we could get to 11 million easily.
He gave us the Discworld - and yes, we bought all his books - but this is a small way we could honor his name!
i have worked on an alzheimers unit in a nursing home,and i continue to work with people suffering from the disease to this day.hearing that my favorite writer had an early onset form of it(a rather odd form of it at that)broke my heart.i am moved to see him putting up a fight against not just the disease in his life,but the disease in the world at large.
Just watched part one of the colour of magic and it was great. And having recently bought the wit and wisdom of discworld and met the man himself on his making money tour I was sad to hear the news. However i'm pleased to see that you're facing it with the characteristic wit that you are known for and wish you the best of luck.
Realy great person, Good luck
