Too bad he's suffering from Alzheimer... Hopefully, they'll find a cure thanks to his donations. Of course, he's already being treated and there are signs of improvement, but our sir Pratchett might have problems writing another great book.
Well, Alzheimer isn't as deadly as cancer or tumor. It causes memory problems and makes the process of aging faster.piers789 said:It will be a sad day for world literature when he dies.Abedeus said:Lately, I've found a great thing to kill the time - a pencil and a knife/a pair of compasses.

I know a little about Alzheimer's, so I know that a cure is unlikely, but for his (and many others) sake I hope they do, and fast.

Me, I'm a multi tasker.Fronken said:Masturba...uhm, no but really, i download series and watch through them, such as "How I Met Your Mother", "Psych", "Seinfeld" and the likes of them...
Alzheimer's causes plaque to build up in the brain blocking the motor neurones; it also attacks the beta-amaloids on the phospholipid bilayer. (I'm actually really interested in the phospholipid bilayer - sad I know but oh well) So, yes stem cells could help to a degree but even with the help, a full cure would be very difficult to find.Abedeus said:Well, Alzheimer isn't as deadly as cancer or tumor.

But hey, there are few things positive. You can treat Alzheimer by being active socially (we are talking about Pratchett... Few millions of people know him and a lot of them met him), training your intelligence (again, Pratchett is one of the most intelligent writers I've seen). Also, he has at least 6-12 years ahead of him, more if they find a cure.
...Stem cells?
It's still a great loss.

Sing along in a different genre. Like The Who in Death Metal or Pantera in Country.
