Terry Pratchet, early onset Alzheimers


http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/12/12/nterry112.xml

Sad news for fans of his books. This summer I read my first Terry Pratchett book and loved it. It was called "The Amazing Maurice and his talented Rodents" or something like that... great and thoughtful book--with an emphasis on very funny.

I think that I have a friend from Nauvoo(Ruby is screen name) who counts him as one of her favorite authors. I have not yet read any of works, but hope to change. I had a professor who I found out not too long after taking his course that he was in the beginning stages of Alzheimers. I still saw articles published by him in our Alum news that I took to be recent even a few years later. I hope that Terry Pratchett will be able to have a quality life regardless of whether any more works are published.
