This progressive disease generally lasts 8 to 10 years before <br />death occurs. <br />While no one is certain what causes these changes in the brain’s nerve fibers <br />（神经纤维）,their effect is certain .Alzheimer’s destroys not only the <br />patients ,but also spouses（配偶）,friends and families. <br />What should you do if you notice progressive memory loss in yourself or a loved <br />one?
