Alzheimer and Dementia Presentation by: Bernadette V. Cabe
What if your aging father or other family member can no longer recognize you? What if you notice your neighbor wandering in the neighborhood seemingly lost? They may be experiencing the debilitating effects of Alzheimer or Dementia, a disease characterized by memory loss and changes in behavior. Learning about this disease may help you detect its warning signs and how to better understand its impact on daily activities.
