Mary gave to everyone.

First, she did loved everyone and gave to everyone with a smile on her face, herself, time, money and foods. She grew up poor and knew how it feel to be hungry and sick but what hurt her most at that time is when she saw so many others suffering from this slow and deadly disease, at that time Mary did not fully understood what is Alzheimer's, but she had always believe nothing is impossible and nothing name can't and she knew deep down in her heart there will be a cure for this slow and deadly disease name Alzheimer's sometime in the future, but in the mean time Mary was focusing on helping peoples who were sick, hungry, homeless and suffering.
She did always put herself in other people place and reminded everyone " to do unto others what you would like them do unto you" she did strongly believe no one should be hungry, sick and homeless. In all Mary did more for others than herself.

You Memory and Alzheimer's diaease.

Autobiographical memory: Memory for the personal events and facts of one's life.
There is no single concept called " memory " There are two overarching types: short-term, which allows you to remember the beginning of this sentence by the time you reach the end of it, and long-term, which includes unconscious habits and reflexes, general facts and knowledge, and autobiographical memory ... memory for the personal details, facts and experiences of your life.
The brain has over 100 billion nerve cells (neurons). Each nerve cell communicates with many others to form networks.
Nerve cell networks have special jobs. Some are involved in thinking, learning and remembering. Others help us see, hear and smell. Still others tell our muscles when to move
Just like the rest of our bodies, our brains change as we age. Most of us notice some slowed thinking and occasional problems remembering certain things. However, serious memory loss, confusion and other major changes in the way our minds work are not a normal part of aging.
The term early-onset refers to Alzheimer's that occurs in a person under age 60. Early-onset individuals may be employed or have children still living at home. Issues facing families include ensuring financial security, obtaining benefits and helping children cope with the disease. People who have early-onset dementia may be in any stage of dementia – early, middle or late. Experts estimate that some 980,000 people in their 30s, 40s and 50s have Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia.
There are over 6 million Americans now have Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer's destroys brain cells, causing problems with memory, thinking and behavior severe enough to affect work, lifelong hobbies or social life. Alzheimer’s gets worse over time, and it is fatal. Today it is the seventh-leading cause of death in the United States.

Alzheimer's disease and your health

Until the late 1970s, the study of such personal memory was not considered suitable for scientific inquiry. Whatever played across the mind's screen was private and unknowable to the outside world.This lack of knowledge about how memory works made it almost impossible to unravel one of medicine's most vexing questions - the cause of Alzheimer's, an age-related disease affecting more than six million Americans.
But an examination of the latest research, some of it not yet published, shows that, neuron by neuron, scientists are finally making their way into the deepest recesses of human memory. Like the first blurry, black-and-white pictures sent back from the surface of the moon, the view is still imperfect, but memory's secret landscape is slowly being revealed.For example Scientific are now using laser and different type of wire devices to cause regression to the memory.
Science is unlocking many of the mysteries of the brain, but we don’t have all the answers yet. You can do everything “right” and still not prevent Alzheimer’s disease. What’s offered here is the best and most up-to-date information available so that you can make your own decisions about your health...There are still no cure for this disease.

Diabetes and Head injury link to Alzheimer's disease

Diabetes

People with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes face a greater risk of Alzheimer's disease and vascular cognitive impairment. Research indicates that this increase in risk may be due to a shared mechanism: a deficiency or dysfunction of insulin, the hormone that enables cells in the body to use blood sugar (glucose).

Brain cells need blood sugar in order to function, and in particular to execute a high-energy task such as learning a skill or forming a memory. Yet a 2005 study in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease provides evidence that the brain's ability to use blood sugar may be compromised as Alzheimer's disease develops. The researchers found that insulin levels and the number of insulin receptors in the brain fall dramatically in the early stage of Alzheimer's disease, and they continue to plummet as the disease progresses. In the advanced stage of Alzheimer's disease, there are 80% fewer insulin receptors in the brain than is normal. The researchers think that the decline in insulin and insulin receptors in the brain may be linked somehow to the death of neurons and appearance of tangles in the brain — the signs of Alzheimer's disease.

Head injury

Many former boxers develop a condition called dementia pugilistica (boxer's dementia) after suffering repeated blows to the head. The microscopic changes in their brains resemble those in Alzheimer's disease, which led researchers to wonder if brain injury might be a factor in the disease. Researchers discovered amyloid deposits in people who died shortly after severe head injury, especially in those with the ApoE4 gene. The authors concluded that less severe head injuries might trigger amyloid deposits in susceptible people, resulting years later in full-blown Alzheimer's.

Some famous people who die from Alzheimer's disease

The real facts about Alzheimer's disease;

In Alzheimer’s disease, memory for old events is preserved till the advanced stages of the disease. In the early stages, the ability to learn new things is impaired. Since the common man assumes that memory for old events is more important, some individuals who have Alzheimer's disease are not brought to the doctor in the early stages of the disease.

Even if a individual with changes in intellectual capability is taken to a doctor, general physicians with limited experience in treating Alzheimer’s disease will rarely make a specific diagnosis of this disease. Although awareness is increasing, many misconceptions prevail among medical practitioners.

There are still no CURE of any kind for Alzheimer's disease today on the world market... Dr.William Thomas.

Alzheimer's disease and donations

We cares

Our main gold is to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; at the same time to provide and enhance care and support for all affected by this disease; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. We are working very hard so that one day there would be a world without Alzheimer's disease, but for now with your donations its allow us to build homes, give medicine, food and remove individuals who have Alzheimer's disease from the street who are homeless and from mental homes and cares for them.

There are still no CURE of any kind for Alzheimer's disease today on the world market... Dr.William Thomas.
