NEW research has found that people whose mothers suffered from Alzheimer’s disease are more likely to get the disease than those whose father had the condition.
The research involved a study of 53 subjects, all over 60 years old (pictured). So they were fairly forgetful in the first place one would imagine.
Ten had a father who repeats himself, 11 had a forgetful mother, and 32 had no family history of the illness. Each volunteer underwent an initial MRI examination and was examined again two years later.
Most of them forgot to show up to their follow-up appointments so scientists say the research might not be that accurate.
Anyway, it doesn’t sound right to us, BBM’s mum was diagnosed years ago and we’re yet to show any symptoms.
