This sucks. My Dad's best friend (and former US Ambassador to Cyprus and National Security Advisor to President Clinton), who is like a second father to me, was diagnosed with early onset in 2005. My Dad literally threw up the day he got the news. I cried a lot that day. The projected life expectancy 5+ years past initial diagnosis is pretty grim. It's been really sad and gut wrenching watching such a brilliant and accomplished man fade like this.

A million prayers to Pat Summitt. It's going to be a tough road.
