Sadly, Terry Pratchett has been diagnosed with early stage Alzheimer’s

Times article is here

Terry's official announcement

He says he still has a few books left in him, and seems pretty positive.

Hopefully he'll still be OK for a long time.

But if nothing else, I'm sure he can afford the best medical treatments.

This is really sad. Let's hope he's able to write some good books, still.
