Whoo-hoo! If there was ever a man who deserved to be called 'sir', it's TP.

Great man. Who writes great books. My aunt has just been diagnosed with Early Onset Alzhiemers. She's 50. It's good to see him be recognised for his work. Good for him.

My aunt is 50 but she looks about 35. She started showing symptoms of Alzheimers when she was 45. Now she can't recognise us. The trouble is that she looks so young that people don't understand when she acts innappropriately and acts strangely.

He's a great man to raise awareness. It isn't only old people who suffer from this condition.

Well done Mr.P for raising awareness of Early Onset Alzheimers. Well Done! Thumbs up
