Understanding your loved one’s Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis.
Alzheimer’s disease is a brain condition — and the most common cause of dementia. The symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease get worse over time. Your loved one may experience a decline or change in:
Memory
Reasoning
Language
Coordination
Mood
Behavior
Personality.
There are different stages of Alzheimer’s disease e.g. early, middle and late. However, it’s important to know that it’s a unique journey for each person. The rate of progression varies for each person, as well as the symptoms they may experience during each stage of Alzheimer’s disease.
Sadly, the progression of the disease will cause your loved one to slowly lose the ability to care for themselves and require the help of others, such as family and/or professional caregivers.
