In everyday speech, a phrase may be any group of words, often carrying a special idiomatic meaning; in this sense it is roughly synonymous with expression. In linguistic analysis, a phrase is a group of words (or possibly a single word) that functions as a constituent in the syntax of a sentence—a single unit within a grammatical hierarchy. A phrase appears within a clause, although it is also possible for a phrase to be a clause or to contain a clause within it.
There is a difference between the common use of the term phrase and its technical use in linguistics. In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or other significance, such as "all rights reserved", "economical with the truth", "kick the bucket", and the like. It may be a euphemism, a saying or proverb, a fixed expression, a figure of speech, etc.
In grammatical analysis, particularly in theories of syntax, a phrase is any group of words, or sometimes a single word, which plays a particular role within the grammatical structure of a sentence. It does not have to have any special meaning or significance, or even exist anywhere outside of the sentence being analyzed, but it must function there as a complete grammatical unit. For example, in the sentence Yesterday I saw an orange bird with a white neck, the words an orange bird with a white neck form what is called a noun phrase, or a determiner phrase in some theories, which functions as the object of the sentence.
Alzheimer's disease (AD), also known as Alzheimer disease, or just Alzheimer's, accounts for 60% to 70% of cases of dementia. It is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse over time. The most common early symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events (short-term memory loss). As the disease advances, symptoms can include problems with language, disorientation (including easily getting lost), mood swings, loss of motivation, not managing self care, and behavioural issues. As a person's condition declines, they often withdraw from family and society. Gradually, bodily functions are lost, ultimately leading to death. Although the speed of progression can vary, the average life expectancy following diagnosis is three to nine years.
The cause of Alzheimer's disease is poorly understood. About 70% of the risk is believed to be genetic with many genes usually involved. Other risk factors include a history of head injuries, depression, or hypertension. The disease process is associated with plaques and tangles in the brain. A probable diagnosis is based on the history of the illness and cognitive testing with medical imaging and blood tests to rule out other possible causes. Initial symptoms are often mistaken for normal ageing. Examination of brain tissue is needed for a definite diagnosis.Mental and physical exercise, and avoiding obesity may decrease the risk of AD. There are no medications or supplements that decrease risk.

Glowing mum-to-be Christine Stone decided to film her mum Setsuko Harmon’s replies each time she informed her of her pregnancy over four days. Despite being afflicted with the memory destroying disease, the 77-year-old breaks into a huge grin and begins clapping with excitement whenever the news is broken. Invariably Setsuko asks her daughter when the baby is due before telling Christine, 38, ‘I’m so glad’ and giggling with joy.

I am uploading this to help dispel the notion that Alzheimer's disease just makes you forgetful. It is a Fatal disease that slowly kills your brain over the course of years. There is no cure or even any treatment to slow the progression of the disease. My father clings to some the sense of doing chores, but just wanders around the house constantly doing things like this. I lost my mother to cancer nearly twenty years ago, and I think this disease is far far worse. My dad served his country as a An infantryman in Vietnam and then served as a police officer in the city of Detroit for 15 years before having to retire on medical disability after his patrol car was hit by a drunk driver. He does not deserve to spend his retirement like this.

And though it was discovered over a century ago, scientists are still grappling for a cure. Ivan Seah Yu Jun describes how Alzheimer's affects the brain, shedding light on the different phases of this complicated, destructive disease. Lesson by Ivan Seah Yu Jun, animation by STK Films.
Alzheimer's doesn't have to be your brain's destiny, says neuroscientist and author of "Still Alice," Lisa Genova.

Cien mil moscas persiguen cabezas
para dedicarse a volar en torno a ellas.
Síndromes extraños retan a la ciencia,
colapsan hospitales y salas de urgencia.
Alzheimer.
Pierdes la memoria, olvidas el habla.
Si eras un capullo ahora eres una larva.
Tu mirada fija en un punto imaginario
y la boca abierta siempre babeando.
Rebaños de neuronas huyen en manada
de todos los cerebros que incuban esta tara.
Sálvese quien pueda, empieza la caza.
Pronto serás un hombre maraca.
Alzheimer.
Alzheimer, es tu síndrome.
Alzheimer, la nueva plaga.
Alzheimer, alerta roja.
Tres, dos o uno. Alzheimer arrasa.
Fúndete los plomos, quema tus fusibles,
tu mejor compañero será este síndrme.
Ahora embudos y camisas de fuerza
marcan el estilo que se agota en las tiendas.
Alzheimer.
Esta es la más chic de las enfermedades,
muchos la sufren aunque no lo saben.
Grandes eminencias y famosos dirigentes
siguen en activo mientras la padecen.
Ven a formar parte de este club privado.
El síndrome de Down ya no mola un carajo.
Alzheimer es tu amigo, Alzheimer presidente.
El mundo le aclama y las masas enloquecen.
Alzheimer.
Alzheimer, es tu síndrome.
Alzheimer, la nueva plaga.
Alzheimer, alerta roja.
Tres, dos o uno. Alzheimer arrasa.
