That said Alhimerz (someone help me out here) is the most corrupting illness I've ever witnessed. Anyone who laid eyes to it would fully endorse stem-cell research. Trust me, say what you will, until you witness, you can't imagine how aweful it is.

"Alzheimer's"
Yeah it's pretty devastating. I know this man that got 3 huge presents 3 years in a row because the mother kept thinking he had just had his fortieth. On the fourth year she completely forgot his birthday altogether.
I'd rather lose one of my senses then have Alzheimers disease.
