While filming the debut series, Chris discovered that he is “eight to ten times” more likely to develop Alzheimer’s than the general population.
After having blood tests for the program, she was informed that she is more likely to develop Alzheimer’s because she is one of two to three percent of people with two copies of the APOE4 gene.
“For me, the positive was like, ‘Well, if I didn’t know this information, I wouldn’t have made the changes that I made,'” she said of the shocking news.

Chris emotionally told how he fears developing the disease and forgetting about his wife Elsa Pataky and his children: his daughter India, 10, and his twin sons, Sasha and Tristan, eight.
“The idea of ​​not being able to remember the life I’ve lived, or my wife, or my children, is probably my biggest fear,” he said.
According to Woman’s Day magazine, the sudden discovery inspired him to write a memoir to immortalize his legacy.
After hearing the news, Chris candidly told how he fears developing the disease and forgetting his wife Elsa Pataky and his children: his daughter India, 10, and his twin sons, Sasha and Tristan, eight.
A friend told the publication: “His biggest concern was his family and knowing that the day will come when his children will take care of him.” He has given her a much deeper perspective on life.’
The friend told Woman’s Day that the Hollywood actor will hire a CAA ghostwriter to help with writing the book.
“Chris started jotting down ideas for his book after turning 40 last August, but things didn’t get serious until last week, when he hired one of Los Angeles’ top literary agents,” a source added.
