Hello...

I hope they find a cure for Parkinson's.

Me too! That and a lot of other things. Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia come to mind.

Alzheimer's is scary.

Alzheimer's is scary.

Yeah, and it might be coming to get me in another 20 years or so.

Hopefully they'll have figured out how to cure it in 20 years.

I hope so. I read about a drug, currently in clinical trials, that seems to reverse some memory loss. In 20 more years, maybe there will be even better news than that.

Do you have a link?!

["couldbecousin"]

I'll go look, I forgot the name of the drug though. 

[odeon]

No need to rush it. I'm simply interested.

It runs in my family too. My nanna's sister had it, now my nanna has it and she's dying.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope she goes peacefully and without pain when the time comes.

It runs in the family of my kids. Don't know about my family, from one side they simply did not grow old enough to find out.

i'm sorry egg, that must be hard. my granma is demented but i don't need to see her, i was never close to her. so it doesn't really affect me.
