The car hit Neesham too, then threw him inside.
Not funny cheetah. I'm so sad reading this story. In 1980, my dad died of Alzheimer's...at age 66. He did not know me. Had there been meds we have today, he might have lived longer. This researcher might have come up with the cure had he lived. I pray for him and his family.
My grandmother died of Alzheimer's and my dad was showing signs of it before dying of unrelated causes at 67. I fear I will become a victim of this horrible desease or pass it on to my kids.
We've lost a treasure but his work is still intact and there are others, I'm sure, that will step in to fill the void. We should all wholeheartedly support this research since it could have a severe impact on all our lives as more and more baby boomers age and become victims.
What a great loss to all of us! The work Dr. Smith was doing would and will make an impact on all of us aging Babyboomers. His efforts will never be forgotten and we will strive to carry on from where he has brought us so far. Our Nations hearts and thoughts are with all of his family and friends. We have all suffered a great loss with his passing, even those that do not even know his name, his work will touch all of us in one way or another.
So they came out with a cure and the good doctor was gonna' tell on Monday--but didn't make it through the weekend---I wonder who called to give him the idea to take a walk--and the car driver is also dead? That's covering up their tracks--Somebody didn't want the Alzheimer's cure to be revealed--
Drug manufactures make more money treating a disease than finding its cure. I am sadden this man died. Hopefully we will find out that the driver had some type of aneurysm. I would hate to think the researcher died because of his work.
What do you mean by .."the good doctor was gonna' tell on Monday"?
