I'm on the road, so I'll visit your page and contribute later.

My wife has Alzheimer's disease, so I'm pretty aware of the dementias and how they work. And there are no cures for any of them. Nor is there surefire prevention, particularly as some have genetic components.

With funding of research, I'm hoping in a couple of generations they'll speak of dementias as we speak of poliomyelitis today - few know it or of it, it's largely in our past.
