Re Alzheimer’s:

>> Professor Martins said yesterday that "by chance" two existing drugs - one used to treat prostate cancer and another that boosts female fertility - could slow or even halt the destruction because they interfere with the protein-boosting process. <<

Do you which two drugs this is referring to? T.i.a.

An update regarding my neighbor with Alzheimer’s (#msg-3451682): The gentleman was discovered missing last week, which resulted in a wild scene at my condominium with four police cruisers, neighbors, and next of kin scratching their heads for several hours. One of the neighbors, whose garage is not attached to his condo unit, was taking out his trash and opened his garage door. You guessed it –the missing gentleman was in the garage. Evidently, he entered while the garage door was inadvertently left open (he presumably thought he was entering own garage), pressed the button to close the door, and then couldn’t figure out how to get it open again. (Pressing the same button again would have done it.) When he was rescued, he didn’t seem to understand the ramifications of the whole ordeal.

The astonishing thing about all this is that this man’s son (who lives in the next town) continues to allow his father to live alone and own a car?!? I doubt he could figure out how to get the key in the ignition to start the car, but I sure wouldn’t want to be ion the road if it ever happened.
