Straight
Answers About Alzheimer's Disease
By Riley Hendersen
 Alzheimer's
can strike without warning, and over a long
period of time. What you first suspect are
just warning signs of aging become much more
alarming signs. Sure, we all forget where we
put that bill, or our glasses or our car
keys, but not every day. While we all lose
track of our days, more often than not we
can figure out what day or time it is
without too much trouble.
So how do you know when you might be
suffering from simple forgetfulness or
something worse, like the early stages of
Alzheimer's? Knowledge of Alzheimer's
disease information can give you peace of
mind. If not, then knowledge is also power,
and you can take steps to determine if you
or a loved one might be suffering from early
state Alzheimer's by visiting your doctor.

 Comparing
Alzheimer's With Other Dementias
By Robert
Tell
There are dozens of dementias - and this
can be confusing.
In 1906, Dr. Alois Alzheimer presented a
key paper to the meeting of the South
West German Society of Alienists. In it
he described the disease syndrome that

the common term most people use whenever
they talk about any kind of dementias.

become a catchall for any syndrome in
which progressive cognitive dysfunction
is the major manifestation.
