With respect to pat, there's (as far as I know) only two types, sporadic (anyone can get) and familial (anyone with the wrong genes can get). How it impacts a person is different. I've met people who died in months after diagnosis and others who lived for years 

My family has the gene for familial. Most of the men in my family died from it. My grandfather was fortunate to try some experimental treatments that may have helped, had a high quality of healthcare and lived about 15 years. His dad on the other hand was a farmer. He "got tired" and was dead in a few weeks.
