Story

CJD (Creutzfelt-Jakob Disease) is a disease where the brain cells deteriorate; causing signs of poor co-ordination, lacking speech and physical functions and understandings; Memory loss and a change in behaviour. Nevertheless this is hard for the victim and loved ones around. I would like to help spread awareness of the disease and to also raise money. On a CJD video clip I watched on youtube, I found that a number of cases of CJD are mistaken for dementia and Alzheimer Disease. This is why Money should be donated in order for cases like CJD to not be mistaken for other conditions. CJD can also be caused by illegal meat production; using an infected cow or or brain tissue to be created into meat products like burgars and sausages. More donations towards research and special authories can help restrain the amount of illegal use.
