The illnesses that killed our parents and grandparents won't kill as many of us in the future. Deaths from strokes, heart attacks and cancer declined significantly between 2000 and 2010, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, while death from Alzheimer's increased significantly.
虽然老年痴呆症将来不会威胁到我们多数人的生命，但它夺去了我们父辈及祖父辈的生命。美国疾病预防控制中心（CDC）称：从2000年到2010年，因中风、心脏病和癌症造成的死亡人数显著减少，而老年痴呆症的死亡率却明显上升。

Diseases of older age can take years to finally kill you. You can battle cancer a long time. Manage heart disease for decades. But these illnesses can also take you quickly, especially heart attacks and massive strokes.
老年病数年后最终会夺去老年人的生命。人们可以和癌症抗争很长时间，也可以和心脏病搏斗几十年。虽然，这些疾病也可能很快使人毙命，尤其是心脏病和中风偏瘫。

Usually, Alzheimer's disease progresses slowly but relentlessly. People diagnosed in their late 60s, for instance, live an average of eight more years, but some live 20 years and more beyond diagnosis.
通常，老年痴呆症的病情发展缓慢但却持续。比如，若在60岁被诊断患此病，平均每个人还可以再活8年，当然也有些人患病后活了20年甚至更久。

According to a recent Alzheimer's Association report: "It is expected an estimated 10 million baby boomers will develop Alzheimer's. Of those who reach 85, nearly one in two will get it."
最近，老年痴呆症协会的一份报告指出：新生儿中约有一千万人（在日后）会患老年痴呆症。而其中，近半数人会在85岁时患病。
The national death rate from Alzheimer's is 25.1 deaths per 100,000 population. Washington has the highest Alzheimer's death rate in the country, 43.6 deaths per 100,000 population. Idaho's Alzheimer's death rate is 26.8 percent.
全国老年痴呆症的死亡率是每十万人中有25.1人死亡。华盛顿老年痴呆症的死亡率居全国之首，每十万人中43.6人死亡；而爱达荷州老年痴呆症的死亡率为26.8%。

虽然在网上查阅了一些关于massive strokes的解释，如“When a stroke is considered to be massive, it can result in paralysis of one side of the body, an inability to speak, memory loss, coma, or even death. There are two types of massive strokes, ischemic and hemorrhagic.”，但是仍然不知道如何翻译，欢迎大家一起探讨~
因水平有限，有些地方翻译可能也不合适，欢迎大家纠错哈~~
