Terry Pratchett describes how Alzheimer’s disease is making it hard to write:
I can spell ‚transubstantiation‘ and in the next bit I can’t spell ‚colour‘ because it’s as if bits of the network are switching on and off.
At least, he hasn’t lost his humour, yet:
There’s a very good way of not catching Alzheimer’s — that’s to die around the age of 30, to die before you get old.
