"The author has published a statement on a website calling the diagnosis "an embuggerance"."
Respect
It's a horrible disease, hope he's right in thinking the treatment options have improved... It was a pretty scary Panorama I saw last week about how they treat elderly patients with dementia

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Pratchett can't have this, for he's cooler than Santa. I a lot of aspects, *I* believe he IS Santa. He even looks the part.
I need a hundred more of his fantastic books, dammit!
I never knew an author that got me hooked so much on his not-really-fantasyworld that I read all his books (40-50? Simon, hellup!) ONE AFTER ANOTHER in at about half a year's time.

NHS is one of the best systems in the world when it works, but it does seem to make some odd choices sometimes.The NHS wrote:Sorry, Mr Pratchett, you're too young to have Alzheimer's so we can't give you the drugs that might help, although god knows you've poured enough into the Exchequer's coffers for us to make an exception. Nope, you're going to have to buy them yourself.

True, but I'm sure he can afford it! (Not that that makes it okay though )EvilBastard wrote:Link

When I first found out, I was fairly upset. Surprised nobody has mentioned it sooner though?
Still gutting. I've known TP longer than my ex-girlfriends. All of them!

I haven't even had a beer tonite. The shame.
Did try and catch it on C4 news tonight, but they kept highlighting it...and then never actually did the piece.
