how my ideas about my topic could be influential in later research
My topic on Alzheimers Disease could be influential in later research because showing that it does need to be reconginzed and how it can affect a person and their family is extremly imporant. I never knew what Alzheimers Disease was until my grandma had it and if i knew all of this before she got it maybe i would have been prepared to deal with everything this disease came with. It wasnt easy thats for sure. We just need to be there for our families and provide all the support you can. My family and I are coming to a conclusion that my grandma (great grandmas mom) might have this disease just like her. She is forgetting what day it is and dates that she wouldn't normally forget such as birthdays of our family members but we aren't sure if it's exactly Alzheimers disease. She could be just forgetting things with the cause of old age. So maybe if I have her read my paper when it's finished she might realize something with her daily routines and ask to be seen or maybe it's just a normal thing to happen when getting old and there's nothing to worry about. We all just hope for the best. Life takes us in all different directions and whatever comes our way, we as a family are going to be there for one another 100%.

ReplyDeleteHi Malorie,
ReplyDeleteYou know what, the information that you find during your research on Alzheimer's Disease could help your family deal with the problems that will arise with your grandma more effectively. I don't know if Alzheimer's Disease is hereditary, but it does sound like your other grandma could be developing it too. Your research on the topic will help your family to understand it better, and you all will know what to expect and how to handle it. Sounds like you have a very close knit family, I'm sure that your family will handle the situation very well. Take Care!
