New Alzheimer's Treatment Fully Restores Memory - BFritz21 - 12-02-2015 Researchers in Australia may have found a treatment of Alzheimer's that fully restores memory function with the use of ultrasound technology that clears the brain of neurotoxic amyloid plaques - structures that are responsible for memory loss and a decline in cognitive function in Alzheimer’s patients. It has only been tested in rats so far, but it says that 75% of the mice they tested it on had their memory returned, which they used three tests: a maze, a test to get them to recognise new objects, and one to get them to remember the places they should avoid. There's more technical stuff in the article, and human trials aren't beginning until 2017, but it's very promising that they have something that seems like it could work and help a lot of people that are effected by this horrible disease that robs people of family members and friends by turning them into people that don't even know them.

It does a lot worse than that. It ultimately kills them as well. RE: New Alzheimer's Treatment Fully Restores Memory - Beaker - 12-02-2015 Q: Why do people with Alzheimer's love Easter? A: Because they can hide their own eggs. RE: New Alzheimer's Treatment Fully Restores Memory - Bengalzona - 12-03-2015 Alzheimer's was may last, best hope to forget some things... like certain threads, for instance.

Mr. Johnson goes to his doctor because he'd begun having some serious health issues. "I'm sorry, Mr. Johnson," the doctor says, "but you've got cancer and you've got also got Alzehimers." "Oh wow," replies Mr. Johnson, "Well, at least I don't have cancer."
