Geese Follow - Do I? September 14, 2014

I met a woman this week who had herself tested for the possibility she would develop Alzheimer's disease.
She has many relatives on both sides of her family who died of Alzheimer's disease and she was curious to know what her chances were of developing this dreadful disease. She is in her late 50's or early 60's. I didn't ask her age.
Of course her expereince made me think. Do I want to get tested? Do I want to know? How would my life be different if I knew?
Could knowing I had a larger than average chance of developing Alzheimer's disease help me in any way?
Could it help you?
