A cure?



The Telegraph in the UK reports  that a  blood test to predict if someone will develop Alzheimer’s within a year has been unveiled by scientists in a breakthrough which could see the disease become preventable.
After a decade of research, experts at Oxford University and Kings College London are confident they have found the 10 proteins which show the disease is imminent.
It means that clinical trials can now start on people who have not yet developed Alzheimer’s to find out which drugs halt its onset.
Alzheimer's is a heart-rending disease altering personalities and causing the patients to live in a world of their own eventually leading to death as various functions break down,
There are many people who have suffered from loved ones and relatives being struck down with the disease. 
It would be good news for quite a few of us . Who knows what the future holds ?
