Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia among older adults. Alzheimer’s disease involves parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language and can seriously affect a person’s ability to carry out daily activities. Although scientists are learning more every day, right now, they still do not know what causes Alzheimer’s disease. For more information go to: http://www.cdc.gov/aging/healthybrain/alzheimers.htm
For local support attend the Alzheimer's Association Caregivers Group meetings the last Tuesday of the month at 11:30 a.m. at Sammy's Pizza in the meeting room. Lunch on your own. Anyone who has a family member of friend with memory loss is welcome to attend. There is no charge for the meeting.
