I think I'm getting a little bit of Alzheimer's. Just a little.
There are so many people getting dementia. It is like an epidemic now. It is a terrible disease because once you get it, your life changes completely.
If we do everything right, the best we can do is live out our potential with as little age-related disease and disability as possible.
Although approximately 80% of osteoporosis sufferers are women, as the longevity of the male population increases, the disease will assume increasing importance in men.
I'm hoping I don't get Alzheimer's.
If I know I'm at genetically high risk of Alzheimer's, maybe I don't plan to retire at 80, and maybe I'm more proactive about where I'm going to live and who's going to take care of me.
There is a disease to which plays as well as men become liable with advancing years. In men it is called doting, in plays dating.The more topical the play the more it dates.
Last year I was diagnosed with osteoporosis. I was over 50, Caucasian, thin, small-framed, and I have it in my genetic history. It was almost a slam-dunk.
In a way, cancer is so simple and so natural. The older you get, this is just one of the things that happens as the clock ticks.
I am particularly interested in Alzheimer's disease and have been for some time now.
Probably the most important reason we are seeing more cancers than before is because the population is ageing overall. And cancer is an age-related disease.
