Alzheimer

Terminal diseases have always been a major challenge to medical science. Particularly difficult to deal with it, is the A’s disease, since it can be detected only when the symptoms have already appeared, making the illness almost impossible to be controlled, neither by drugs nor by an invasive treatment.

Nowadays, however, an early diagnosis can be carried out, and drugs to slow the progress of the disease have been given to patients achieving an 85% of effectiveness in some cases. With this in mind, hopes for stabilization have fortunately arisen, though the cure appears to an issue still belonging to a distant future.

The results seem very promising, but the A’s disease remains almost as distressing as usual, and those who face the dramatic experience of having fallen victims to that illness, still fear the consequences of the inevitable brain damage that comes with it.
