Alzheimer's is a
type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior.
The number of
people diagnosed with the debilitating Alzheimer’s disease is on the rise.
Alzheimer's is a
progressive disease, where dementia symptoms gradually worsen over a number of
years.
In its early
stages, memory loss is mild, but with late-stage Alzheimer's, individuals lose
the ability to carry on a conversation and respond to their environment.
