Bart De Strooper presented at the Copenhagen AD/PD-conference an excellent sketch of the three main inflection points in the pathophysiological evolution of Alzheimer's disease, https://www.alzforum.org/news/conference-coverage/big-picture-three-inflection-points-mark-amyloid-cascade

My own transition from amyloid plagues to p-tau and tangles was retarded by a four years' anti-amyloid therapy in a clinical reaearch project during 2017-22 (aducanumab). Sadly, the most probable explanation for my rapidly worsening cognitive problems may indeed be the tau-tangles, which I somehow avoided earlier. I know there are experimental therapies around somewhere for those gremlins too, but sadly not within my own reach. With respect to my AD, I'm afraid, it's "too late, my friend".

I encourage anybody with a slowly lethal disease to keep mentally in touch with it as long as you can. That's what we human beings were made for. 🤗

Medical Aid In Dying up for Gov Carney’s signature 🙏

“End-of-life options can provide dignity, independence and choice to Delawareans facing the gravest health challenges.

If the governor is unable to sign the bill — which we believe he should — he should let allow it to become law without his signatue.”
