November is National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month

Unfortunately, we all seem to be touched by the dreaded Alzheimer’s disease. Virtually everyone knows someone who has either suffered from this disease or a caregiver of someone suffering from it. Sadly, we often feel so overwhelmed and powerless when we think about the whole thing. Alzheimer’s disease awareness is a good way to prepare and protect yourself should you need to deal with this.

As such, I wanted to concentrate on empowerment. I have picked out four of our blog posts on the subject. Two of them deal with how we can either slow the progression of the disease and improve the quality of life for the patient through an appropriately tailored diet. Another two deal with methods of detection along with some hope for early detection. We have learned that early detection and Alzheimer’s disease awareness enable the sufferer and their family to both take advantage of new and exciting therapies available and to gear up for the future.

Here is the link to our Newsletter Blog Digest on the topic. Most important, this information should help you understand the issues and enable you to set up the very best care team for your loved one.

Please do not hesitate to call me with any questions you may have.

Always here to help,
