Of the six DeMoe children whose father had it, five have inherited the gene; the sixth, Karla, has inherited responsibility for all of them. But rather than give up in the face of such news, the DeMoes have agreed to spend their precious, abbreviated years as part of a worldwide study that could utterly change the landscape of Alzheimers research and offers the brightest hope for future treatmentsand possibly a cure. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Patients $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Family relationships $x Family relationships $z United States $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Rehabilitation $x Rehabilitation $v Popular works. 650 0 $a Alzheimer's disease $x Research $v Popular works. 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Medical. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a MEDICAL / Neurology. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SCIENCE / Life Sciences / Genetics & Genomics. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 13 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305013612.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210714011305.0 952 $l AQPC277 $d 20201212013103.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20190328013643.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20190118011121.0 952 $l NHPD993 $d 20180714043454.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20171128011149.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20170922010819.0 952 $l TVPD862 $d 20170914194718.0 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20170822011516.0 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20170606013024.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20170518010508.0 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20170401010616.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6A540B9E112011E793B36BE2DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
