I wish them good luck but I'm not going to get my hopes up that they will find a drug to prevent Alzheimer's.
We already know that lifestyle plays a big role in prevention but most people live their lives as though they don't care. What most people want is a drug so as not to have to make any lifestyle sacrifices.
P.S. I'm just "Keeping It Real".

It is so troublesome why someone always feels a need to be so negative about anyone's encouraging efforts to help others and then to even blame the victims too. Especially bad is it when it is something they know so little about and there is such a great need for it? Anyone can carelessly make baseless negative comments on anything but it just makes them look bad and shows they don't care about the problems of others. I would encourage anyone to consider how their comments will be interpreted and if they may be hurtful before they post.
I sincerely hope and believe this research will give us a great breakthrough into this terrible disease and for sure we are already a lot closer to understanding cancer which is also great.
Reminds me a famous quote/story by Will Rogers who died in 1935.
Quote from Will Rogers: "After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you're full of bull, it;s best to keep your mouth shut".
P.S. I agree with Will Rogers, if you cannot say something good, why say anything at all? But then we know it is all just said in fun...
