Sending love to all of you. I am dedicating my life to studying prions and the diseases they cause- humans and other mammals. I promise to each and every one of you that I will personally do everything in my power to raise awareness for TSE’s, and search for a cure. Many scientists are eons ahead of me, but I have a natural proclivity for understanding molecular microbiology, and I am working hard to catch up with them and join in on their effort. One year until my BSN, Two years until I finish my Bachelor’s in microbiology. Then on to apply to a PhD in molecular microbio. This is the greatest calling of my life as a future nurse scientist, so please know that there are people out there fighting for your loved ones. Not just me, either. I hear all of you. I am riveted by this phenomenon and will work tirelessly for these patients. We need a cure, and I believe we can find one. I believe that many cases in the last few years of alzheimers and dementia are actually due to vCJD from the late 90’s epizoonotic breakout of BSE.

CJD is the most horrific disease that anyone can get. I lost my Darling Sweet brother to this disease back in 2002. To watch on hopelessly while the person you love with all your heart goes through this illness is the most heartbreaking experience I have ever had to endure. To everyone that has a loved one that has been diagnosed with this disease, I give you all the love I can possibly give to you because I understand what you are going through.

Other than the time she was ill for, everything that she went through looks exactly the same as this vile disease. Blessings to everyone who has been affected by any of these horrific neurodegenerative illnesses.

Originally my LBD husband was thought to have CJD. I spoke with Dr. Geschwind and sent him David's MRI's on CD. He confirmed that it was not CJD and a week later, Dr. Hales from Emory-Wesley Woods in Atlanta made the LBD diagnosis. I lost him 22 months later. I don't wish either disease on anyone.

Trevor, I watched your documentary soon after my fathers diagnosis of probable CJD in late Oct 2017. We lost Dad only weeks later - two days before Christmas. Information is so hard to find (especially in here in New Zealand) and you documenting your mother was so very helpful for me to gain an understanding of the disease and what my father and we, as a family, were going through at the time. Although very late, I wanted to say a huge big "THANK YOU" to both yourself and your amazing Mum for documenting her struggle over a very difficult time for you all. You are a truely special person for producing this.

Hi Tony, I read your comment about your father having CJD and I am very sorry for your loss. My brother was diagnosed with CJD in early October but may have had signs of the disease before then. So we as a family are trying to pinpoint where he could've contracted the disease from and so far as we can see my brother and sister and his wife and friends went on a cruise at the beginning of 2018 and then my brother and his wife went to Bali about the middle of this year, during the year he had an accident at work and fell and hit his head and punctured his lung which he needed a blood transfusion, he also had his shoulder operated on (rotating cuff) or something like that 😂😂 So these may have been some of the factors which may have caused my brother to have CJD. We are waiting on tests results to come back but in the meantime he's gone back to hospital because he's got pneumonia which is weird cause it's not cold. Can you please tell me if your father went on any holidays or cruise or had any accidents before he became ill. My brother lives in Levin.😢😢😢

My best friend died from this over the summer. In May, he started having issues using his left hand. He thought he hurt it at work. Within a few weeks, he started having crippling migraines. Soon he stopped responding to texts altogether, barely communicating (very unlike him,) and shortly after we got the diagnosis. Late in July, he passed away, and the decline over the last few weeks of it was devastating. It has been very hard to process. He was only 32 years old. Thank you for making this documentary.

I lost my wife of 39 years to this dreadful, cruel disease two months ago today. She had just turned 61. We only found out it was CJD about a week before she passed. Very hard, to say the least, watching someone you love be taken away by this. Especially since they are taken away even before they are gone. It seemed to start off with stroke-like symptoms on her right side about four months prior. During the last month, the decline was very rapid. Thank you for this video. It's nice to know we are not alone.

This is such an important documentary- these are the kinds of things we all need to care about. I was diagnosed 30 years ago with a very rare, chronic, non-life-threatening, condition. To find other people who understand, doctors who have knowledge and empathy, and to know people “have your back”- it means the world. To everyone who participated in this, thank you. This is what life is about. To all those who have lost loved ones to CJD, please accept my sincere condolences. I have hope that there will soon be a breakthrough- something that will help those with CJD, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, and Huntington’s disease. Every life is important, and every disease, no matter how rare, is important too.

My father died on May 18th, 2011, just 21 days after CJD diagnosis. His autopsy revealed that his was the acquired variant and likely originated from tainted medical equipment. Interestingly, we were denied hospice care by several institutions due to the CJD diagnosis. We were forced to “hide” his diagnosis and have him admitted with “advanced dimentia”. This was a nightmare for all of us. We need to bring this disease into the light. I️ can only imagine the angst that a genetic variant diagnosis would create. We must help.

Cotton Mather we believe he contracted this from a pig skin graft he received to treat a skin cancer wound on his forehead. I️ researched this extensively and found many sources identifying cranio-facial procedures as a suspect route of infection. We were told it would be an exhaustive process to further pinpoint the infection source and we would incur significant expenses trying to locate the tainted equipment. We just didn’t have the fight in us. As despicable as the familial version of CJD is, knowing that medical tools are not able to be sanitized from this disease haunts me. Common sterilization methods do not kill this germ, and short of requiring virgin medical tools for every operative procedure, every surgical patient is at risk. Your work in the genetic CJD space is admirable, and I️ hope it can also shed some light on the other forms of this devastating disease.

Jumping on this bandwagon that everyone getting prion disease gets it from tainted bovine food products. A very small minority- something like less than 5% of CJD is variant to begin with, and the BSE outbreak in the UK was over 32 years ago! As a medical student who has a particular interest in this subject, it is frankly annoying when people draw links between things without doing the research beforehand. Sorry for your loss.

I have tested gene positive for Huntington’s Disease, which is also always fatal and has similar neurological effects. I watched both my mom and grandmother slowly decline over several years. CJD kills much more quickly, but that can be a blessing because the suffering isn’t prolonged. With these genetic conditions, the only thing worse than knowing is NOT knowing. My husband and I have chosen to not have children. It’s the one thing we could do to ensure that this disease doesn’t continue to spread throughout our family.

14:23 Even though her cognition is rapidly declining, you can see the raw human emotions here. She feels loved, she feels worried, she doesn’t want to be abandoned, she feels relieved. The way they’re all speaking to her throughout is so heartwarming. Even though she likely didn’t understand much of what was happening by this point, she could surely understand that she was in a calm environment full of laughter, joy, and patience, where she was spoken to lovingly and tenderly 🥺❤️‍🩹

I figure in this case it would be because of chemical reactions between the two proteins. As far as I understand, and I could be wrong here, but misfolded proteins a happen occasionally and your immune system has ways of mopping them up. Most don’t become prions and spread to others.

My sister Carol passed away 2-21-2020 from Jacob's .... I miss her terribly! She kept telling her drs. that she didnt feel right. Passed it off to nerves. I remember one night when I was leaving I was asked if I was ok. I turned & said "The light is gone from her eyes" She was a woman who walked every day, never smoked, yoga a couple days a week (she never missed a yoga class) She loved to dance and go on vacation with her husband, daughter, son in law and the loves of her life, 2 beautiful grandchildren. Summers spent in their house in Rockport. When she passed they had a vacation planned in Aruba for all of them. None of us ever heard of the disease ... It all was so fast! 💔

My dad passed away from cjd in 1996. He worked on a farm and was also in Korea during the war. We have no idea where he got it. Possibly blood contact with bse cattle, or tainted meat in Korea. There were signs for years something was wrong, hallucinations, trembling and babbling speech. When it finally grabbed him fully, he was gone in about 30 days. It was awful and no one should suffer that much right before they pass. It was kind of under the radar at the time and he was suspected of having cjd. It was not confirmed until autopsy on his brain. I miss you pop.

She went into the hospital January 1, died February 9th. What a horrific way to die. It was heartbreaking. At one point, mommas eyes were huge and she laughed uncontrollably, hence the name the Fore Tribe gave the disease, Kuru (laughing disease).

Now imagine, like myself who lived in the UK during the BSE pandemic where every day from 95 was like living with a ticking time bomb 1/2000 UK people born from around 1985 carry the vCJD prion all gene types are also susceptible. MM/MV/VV we started the second wave of deaths around 6 years ago. Also vCJD is also blood borne as well so everybody has ever been to the dentist or had a blood transfusion are all at risk. Obviously some medical diagnostics are much more dangerous like any brain surgery, eye surgery, endoscopic procedures especially colonoscopy's are the most risky. It is a living hell having lived through it and having some of those more risky procedures. I suspect though that the vast majority of Americans don't even know what we have had to endure because of government greed and the beef industry's greed. Money is worth more than life.

He told my mom one day that the string on his shorts was 1000 ft of gut and he had to cut it. Another day he said he was reading a book and when I came in his room to check on him he said when he closed it and put it down it went into oblivion. I miss that man. My grandpa passed away in June 2014. 3 years later I lost my mom to cancer. I know its not the same as this but the 2 most important people in my life (my grandpa was the only father figure I had in my life) are gone. And it just hits hard sometimes.

My brother died from this disease in October of 1996. It truly is a horrible disease. Watching everyday as he got worse. He passed I think 7 months after diagnosis was heartbreaking. He had a wonderful care giver who read and learned about C.J.D. He wanted to be cremated. When they came to take him we did not know the people who came to get him. We left to go pick an urn and pay for it. The woman and her husband didn't tell us right away, but after we were gone, they put on decontamination uniforms and went back and were spraying him with something. She got up and went to see what they were doing to him. She got really angry and told them THANK GOD THEY DIDN'T DO THAT WHEN WE WERE THERE! You didn't have to be afraid to touch him just use gloves . When we had the service at the cemetery, I just was left with a lot of questions and I don't believe my brothers ashes are over there, and there is no way to prove or disprove if he is. This has driven a wedge between my family and me. They just won't talk about it. It bother them too much to see what was happening to him, so it was my oldest sister and myself who watched everyday. If I mention it they tell me to stop being paranoid about it. Thanks for listening!

I have been studying prion diseases. Ask the doctor about an experimental drug (an artificial antibody) named "PRN100". Four people who have been diagnosed with CJD have been given the antibody within the past several months and there has been no known side effects. There have also been more and more compounds found which potentially can halt prions, one of them is called "JZ107". While these potential treatments havent been proven yet, they are the latest in research when it comes to prion diseases, and have been found effective in animal studies. Worth a look at. Good luck to her, you, and your family.

There’s a clinical trial right now. No guarantees but it’s better than the certain alternative. I come from a family who has familial CJD. I have yet to be tested but several immediate family members with the genetic mutation. So you carry that until the gene expresses or starts creating a protein. Tested by lumbar puncture and MRI with neurologist and test results sent to CJD monitoring center in Ohio, USA. If your family member has been diagnosed with active protein, and is in early stages, you should absolutely contact CJD foundation. Case western reserve is running the trial I believe.

And I suspect we will soon see a huge increase, and some sort of connection with what they are calling CWD in wild game such as deer and elk.

My opinion is... right now there is no proven science that CWD is transmissible to humans. But prion diseases can take decades to incubate in humans so if CWD mutates into a form that can - it won't show up right away in the population. I certainly wouldn't risk eating untested/unregulated meat from anywhere.

​@@lucianaromulus1408 While certainly possible, the degree of transmissibility of one does not necessarily suggest the likelihood of the transmissibility of the other. We of course learned this the hard way when assuming that the lack of species jumping in scrapie would be shared by BSE. Similar could be the case for CWD, but equally the opposite could be true. In fact, while not conclusive, there is evidence which suggests that the compatibility of the CWD prion with the normal human PrP protein is low (while in the case of BSE it was high), which with other evidence further supports the idea that the chance of human infection is remote. Still, it's important to remain vigilant, we know what happened last time.

I guess I'm confused on the genetics. If the mother in this story had not gotten it from her father - had she gotten the sporadic version, does that mean she had those markers earlier in life and could have passed them on to her children and then not developed the disease until her 70's? If she had sporadic, does that mean her kids won't have inherited it?

So fast. I have to say - I watched my neighbor go through hell for 15 years after her brilliant professor husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's. I don't know but I would prefer faster than the endless misery faced by families dealing for years with dementia or other neurological diseases. And never mentioned, the incredible financial drain.

My husband had a genetic test in 2009 after his mother passed from CJD and has the CJD T183A-129M. They basically told him he was screwed. His mother, grandmother and two uncles all died from the same thing. He's positive it starts in late 40s and can go on for a few years before death. Is there anything new with research? What do I do with this knowledge, just prepare for the inevitable?

I'm so sorry to read about this. Since this absolutely horrific illness is incurable still, if you can, move to a state or country that grants the right to die (euthanasia). Nobody should die such a horrible death.

I was told to get a long term health insurance policy before getting the genetic test to see if I have the marker, and that I'd not be insurable afterwards. I've ultimately decided to not have the test. I just don't want to even know if or that it's going to happen. And honestly, if I knew for certain that the onset had begun, I know what choice I'd have to make for myself.

Oh and cumulative brain trauma injury acts this way too. I have that. Balance issues, panic, aphasia and usually for me it's worse when I'm conversing or stressed Forget doing long tests or numbers backwards. Didn't know I even had it until a test was ordered through disability with my other symptoms. I have good and bad days. Interesting the similarities because I have neuropathy and such from out of nowhere but I've had it over 8 yrs so I'm pretty sure not cjd but it's a combination of things from my 20s on. I'm adopted since zero records of family illnesses

There are support groups. There is also the CJD Foundation in the US. If there was a breakthrough in treatment (there isn't) you would hear of it on the news and definitely read about it there.

😭😭😭 My brother went to work one day and was having a normal day when his brother in law saw him in the yard just standing there confused. He's a truck driver. This has just started and we are waiting for his results to come back but the hospital is sending him home as a day patient. He remembers when we were kids and he remembers his wife at the age of 15 but he doesn't remember his kids or grandchildren. My brother just had his 60th birthday and we don't have big hospitals in our small country with bulk money, We are from New Zealand. We need help.
