Changing lives

Hopes for Alzheimer's treatment

Mrs Phillips said: "It means to me the loss of a lovely man whom I've known since I was 16 and I'm losing him slowly, quietly and insidiously.

"It's like a bereavement, but it's a living bereavement almost," she told the BBC.

"I would give my right arm if they could find a treatment for Alzheimer's. I dream about it."

Keep your right arm Mrs. Phillips, you'll need it to help your husband in other ways, like holding hands and big hugs. This treatment sounds very promissing and I hope it leads to the reduction of, or perhaps a cure for Alzheimer's.
