The genius is on the left, the lunatic is on the right

Chapter 6

Dr. Leeds is a well-known surgeon in California.Different from her beautiful appearance, her long-term relationship with patients and the most real body makes her cold and serious.But her professional skills make people have to admire.

Not only is he admirable technically, Dr. Leeds has raised a pair of children alone for decades, and educated them to be successful in their studies, which is not something every woman can do.Such Dr. Leeds is tantamount to a successful "strong woman" representative.

Today, Dr. Liz is nearly sixty years old, her son has become a pilot, and her daughter is about to graduate from medical school, taking over her mantle and continuing to treat diseases and save lives.Friends have speculated that if Dr. Leeds, who is only thinking about work, let her leave her post, it would be tantamount to making her commit suicide.

However, Dr. Leeds' assistant suddenly announced that Dr. Leeds had taken a year's long vacation and traveled around the world.The whole thing was simply out of character for her.People guessed that on the one hand, they were thankful that the strict female boss did not go to work, and on the other hand, they were flustered because of the "lack" of experts.

Half a year later, the matter of Dr. Liz traveling around the world gradually faded out of people's sight, but only her daughter knew best that Dr. Liz did not go on a trip, but lived in a nursing home with an elegant environment and high fees .

In fact, everything started to go wrong a year ago.Dr. Liz, who has always been vigorous and vigorous, began to become slow in her work, because she always forgot things, and the medical records she put down could not be found when she turned around. This person's name speaks of that person's work.The most serious thing is that she actually forgot about the surgery, or went to the wrong operating room... These things never happened in her first half of her life, and she also felt that something was wrong, so she quietly went to another hospital for surgery examine.

Sure enough, without warning, Dr. Liz suffered from Alzheimer's disease, which is what we commonly call Alzheimer's disease.The current condition is only mild, but soon, Dr. Liz will forget the people around her and who she is. She will become demented, unable to take care of herself, and incontinent...

In fact, Dr. Leeds went from bad to worse.Sometimes she is awake and sometimes confused.I don't know the doctors and nurses, and sometimes I don't know my own daughter.The only one with a clear memory is her lover many years ago, who was also the director of the hospital where she once worked.

Whenever the dean came to visit her, she seemed very excited, holding her lover's hand as if no one else was there, and telling her how she missed her.It is precisely because of her illness that the daughter inadvertently learned the real reason why her mother insisted on divorcing her father many years ago.

No one can help Dr. Liz, her memory is pathetic, and sometimes she feels that she is still working, and she has an orderly tone to everyone who walks into the ward. She calls out the names of her former assistants and orders countless things, and about those terms she used professionally, she never seemed to forget them, and said them accurately.

Sometimes she was back in her youth, and she and her lover conspired to divorce her husband, and the two went off to start their careers in new places.

She lived in such a chaotic way every day. Although her daughter expressed resentment for her mother's past behavior, facing the dying and unconscious old woman in front of her, she couldn't say anything except being sad.

The brain-burning logic of a genius or a madman
Although diseases are scary to say, they are unavoidable in a person's life, and they will be affected by different diseases at different times.But Alzheimer's disease is a more "heart-abusing" disease, because it seldom breaks out and reaches a climax quickly.

Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, most common in people over the age of 65.Although young people can also suffer from this disease, but the incidence is very low.Alois Alzheimer's disease was first diagnosed in a middle-aged woman in the early 20th century.Since Alois Alzheimer first discovered and defined the disease, it is named after him.

At the beginning, there will be some signs of Alzheimer's disease that are easily overlooked by people, such as forgetting what I said yesterday, or forgetting where I went the day before yesterday... When the patient knows for sure that he has this disease, the pain Here we go.Not because of how much pain this disease will bring to the body, but because of its chronicity and obviousness, patients can feel that they are gradually becoming forgetful and unable to take care of themselves...

This is just an ordinary disease, but it can bring people to death.Studies have shown that the genetic rate of Alzheimer's disease in immediate family members is as high as 50%, which is really a shocking figure.

Regrettably, so far, there is still no perfect cure for Alzheimer's disease in medicine, and some effective treatments can only help the patient alleviate the condition, and try to keep him away from the level of being unable to take care of himself .However, everyone concerned is still working hard, hoping that in the near future, Alzheimer's disease can find a solution.
