I sure hope that this works. If it does and could thorugh FDA safely, I will be in the line,.
This would also be great for those with early onset Alzheimer's. I hope they are testing this drug for those as well. Since Alzheimer's disease can be hereditary, what about those of us that have a strong risk factor there, but are not yet considered elderly? Very thankful that these studies are being done.
I pray this works for other family's, my family is going through this awful disease and it is worse then death.
