Mum just got diagnosed
New to all of this, no grandparents had symptoms and lived to old age along with their own parents and siblings. My mum (63) has several brothers and sisters all older who are fine, cousins all fine. It’s a compete shock!!
I’m so upset and scared for the future, not only for my mum but also for me and my children and my brother and his children. I’ve already had panic attacks at my body twitching, worrying my score will be higher and I’ll start showing symptoms younger, I’m 39.
I’m devastated and can’t stop crying!! How do we even deal with this??
