Alzheimers disease

Today the NYTimes had a feature article begging for fed funds to find a cure for
this terrible disease. I heartily applaud this effort, but grieve again about the timing. Marge was diagnosed with Alzheimers about 5 years ago. At first, we hardly thought about it. But it has gradually got worse, and now, our daughter and me, are seeing the long slow culmination that cannot be stopped, or easily slowed down. The article firmly predicts, and I believe, that it can, and probably will, see a cure by 2020. This is a time frame that prevailed for the demise of polio and the cures for aids, flu, etc. That's great, but too slow for us.
When polio was cured. I had a friend who was probably one of it's last victims. What a tragedy for him to go thru life knowing that he was last to get the disease.
We see that happening to Marge. NO CURE AVAILABLE NOW!
