There are so many theories and suspicions about causes. Even if smoking increases your chances, it is still only one of many possible contributing factors, including genetics. I am no expert and have no personal experience with the disease. But, I think it is a frightening disease as our memories are crucial to who we are and the thought of losing them is hard to imagine.

My grandmother was hit with it. The roughest part was the beginning, when she still had some good days and she knew that she was loosing her memory. Ironically, once her memory was virtually gone, she was the happiest I'd ever seen her. She thought she was living at home with her siblings. She remembered them, but none of us. Quite sad. Of course, she didn't smoke.

There is almost, absolutely, never just one cause in operation at a given time. However - the import of my comment is to direct the readers focus toward the causes of health rather than the causes of the many thousands of 'diseases.' Any takers?
