Fight Back Against Fascism<p>I just learned that my son's mother-in-law is nearing her last day. She's only 60.</p><p>A few yrs ago she was diagnosed w/posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), a rare condition that falls under the Alzheimer's umbrella that tends to strike folks in their 50s. It's often misdiagnosed &amp; there's no trmnt.</p><p>It's a horrible disease. Unlike some conditions in this group, memory &amp; awareness stay intact until near the end of life so the patient is cognitive of their declining health &amp; prognosis 💔 </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Alzheimers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Alzheimers</span></a></p>
