It goes from forgetting words to forgetting faces. Several treatments are out there to help slow the decline of a patient, no cure this disease. This disease is common and can be family crushing, seeing a loved one go from living alone and being able to care themselves, to not even being able to take a shower alone. This disease is destroying families across America.]]> 2021-04-13 20:31:10 UTC https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1413908864 bkennedy2018 https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1413977434 Having a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimers disease could be one of the toughest things to overcome, seeing someone you truly love deteriorate and not be able to perform normal day to day tasks. Going through this  is very costly, if the individual does not have enough funds, or quality for Medicaid in some states then it is up to the family to take care of them. costs could include moving costs, assisting living/nursing home monthly rent and fees. A situation like this could make a family go bankrupt for just trying to help out a loved one. ]]> 2021-04-13 20:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1413977434 bkennedy2018 https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1414016605 There are several warning signs to look for before it gets too late, these would be recent memory loss, confusion of time and place, difficulty performing daily tasks, poor judgments, and forgetting where personal belonges are.   ]]> 2021-04-13 21:11:02 UTC https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1414016605 bkennedy2018 https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1414069888 Unfortunately Alzheimers isn't something one can really prevent it is something that comes with aging and there are several ways to deal with this disease. One way would be to move into an assisted living home where you will be watched and helped out with your day to day tasks. Another popular way in dealing with this disease is to hire an in-home care aide that either lives at your house or that comes over daily to assist you and make sure that you are safe and healthy. Lastly which isn't always ideal but this would be the most cost efficient is by moving in with loved ones.]]> 2021-04-13 21:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bkennedy2018/azl37ou5rwgdxsrx/wish/1414069888
