  1. I know two who were diagnosed in the last few years… Learning languages helps massively to prevent it from what I heard. I can understand basics in 20+ languages. But I’m decent in Spanish, Japanese, Ukrainian and German.

  2. Wth is going on in Canada? Isn’t it environmental and/or biological that’s a lot. But Canada has free medical, right?!

  3. Pretty sure my father is going to develop it in the next 10 years due to the stroke he suffered a few years ago 🙁 Scary times.
