Although there are thousands who suffer with alzheimers disease, there are available treatments for alzheimers. We still need to do a lot of work in order to discover how and why this disease attacks the way that it does. Scientific research has managed to learn how the brain is attacked once this disease takes hold on a person. The patient will not be able to do simple tasks that they found so easy to do before they developed alzheimers. They will lose the ability to do simple things like preparing food and cooking it as this will put them in danger of hurting themselves.
We continue to wait for better treatments for alzheimers to be found. There still is no cure for alzheimers, however there are drug treatments that slow down the degeneration of the brain cells, but eventually hard cold fact is that a person suffering from this condition is.
Everyday scientists are working and new research is been carried out, and yes they might not find a cure in the next ten years, but hopefully they will come up with future treatments for alzheimers disease. It may not be a complete cure but if a persons life can be inmproved, it can only be a good thing.
You might not like this idea but, there is a option for some people who have alzheimers to be used as test patients, now I know this may frighten some people, but if by doing this, the doctors can monitor the affects and changes the patient goes through, this could help future treatment for alzheimers.
To keep doing this research takes money. There are plenty charities out there which you could donate to if you wish. You could take a look in your local yellow pages or there are plenty of places where you can find information online. Without doing all the research for this disease the day will never come when they find a cure for this degenerating disease.
I think until you are dealing with someone close to you that has been diagnosed with alzheimers you don’t really know how horrific and heartbreaking this disease can be. just to watch your loved one slowly lose all of their faculties and while watching this, knowing that it is going to kill them, is a dreadful thing to go through. Research in alzheimers costs money and only when one has incounted alzheimers, will a person realise the importance of finding better treatments for alzheimers.
