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. What we have learned is the how this paticular condition impacts the brain, leaving the sufferer with the inability to think clearly. A person who has developed alzheimers will be unable to perform simple tasks, that would have not been difficu;lt prior to contacting the disease. Making a cup of tea will be so difficult for them, they will no longer be able to cook for themselves, all these things will put them at risk of injury.
Although we keep hanging on for future treatments for alzheimers to be discovered. 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 still might not be a cure, but anything that can give alzheimers patients a better quality of life has to be worth it.
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.
Further research into alzheimers disease, or any other disease is often an expensive undertaking. There are organisations that accept funding for research that you could give to if you want. There are plenty of resources on the internet that you could take advantage of. Without further reasearch, we will have to wait a long time to find a cure for this awful 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. watching someone you care for going through such an ordeal, and knowing that this person will probably die from the disease, is not an easy thing to cope with. Research in alzheimers costs money and only when one has incounted alzheimers, will a person realise the importance of finding better treatments for alzheimers.
