“A long time ago a lady named Auguste was delirious and could not remember
the basic moments of her life, she had a doctor named Alois. She came to him
and he was treated by her until she passed away in 1906. After her death they
performed an autopsy, and found strange plaques and tangles in her brain of a
kind she had never seen before. From that moment on, Dr. Alois Alzheimer was
the first to diagnose Alzheimer's disease”.
Since 1901 medicine has advanced a lot, antibiotics and vaccines have been
discovered to protect us from infections, but little progress has been made in
the treatment of Alzheimer's. It is predicted that in the year 2050 Alzheimer's
will affect more than 150 million people, including all of us. And let's talk
about the high amounts of money required to care for a person with
Alzheimer's, today it is currently the most expensive disease.
Many authors and scientists have confused Alzheimer's disease with aging, but
one only has to look at the photo of a healthy aging brain compared to that of
an Alzheimer's patient to see the actual physical damage caused by this
disease, in addition to triggering severe loss of memory and mental abilities,
significantly reduces life expectancy and is always fatal.
Todos los que tienen un cerebro corren el riesgo de tener Alzheimer, hoy en día
hay 40 millones de personas pacientes como Auguste que no pueden crear el
cambio que necesitan para sí mismos, ayuda hablando con ellos y ayuda a
exigir una cura...
