Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
CJD Christophorusschule Königswinter was created in 1992.
The motto of CJD Christophorusschule Königswinter is 'Let nobody be lost!'.
Cases of CJD have been grouped into three types: familial, iatrogenic, and sporadic.
Familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare genetic form of prion disease that causes rapid mental and physical deterioration. It is characterized by progressive dementia, muscle stiffness, and coordination problems. Familial CJD is caused by a mutation in the PRNP gene, which leads to the misfolding of prion proteins in the brain.
My grandpa had cjd. You start losing your memory, and then you are put on bed rest. You can't move, talk, or open your eyes. He died in 2 months. So stfu , and never put the words cjd in your mouth.

As of 2004, no treatment has been shown to be effective against CJD. Treatments are available to alleviate some symptoms, such as morphine for muscle pain , and clonazepam (Rivotril) or sodium valproate (Epilim) for jerky movements.
The abbreviation CJD is actually known by a few different meanings including the following: Creutzfeldt Jacob Disease, Criminal Justice Department or Civil Justice Division.
The most obvious pathologic feature of CJD is the formation of numerous fluid-filled spaces in the brain (vacuoles) resulting in a sponge-like appearance.
