Remember the Dead
Remember the dead, felled by aging - and those still dying. For in their suffering, they have still made the effort to help you live a longer, healthier life than theirs: "I do about 100 public talks a year and I ask them, as I would ask you - 'Consider being in our brain bank. Consider giving us your brain after you die for our research in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's and these other age-related disorders,' and people have done that in droves. ... In 2005, SHRI expanded its brain bank to include body donations as Dr. Rogers and the other researchers at the institute began realizing the advantages the institute has for studying Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease would apply to every other age-related disorder. Another deciding factor was people donating their brains began asking the institute to also take their entire bodies. Of the 1,000-plus people in SHRI's brain bank, nearly 70-80 percent now have signed up to donate the rest of their bodies upon death." What have you done recently to help bring on the future of therapies for age-related conditions?
