Is it normal, age related memory loss and nothing to worry about, or could it be the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease? With 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 every day, this is a question that is being asked much more frequently.
Early detection of Alzheimer’s can make a huge difference in the quality of life not only for the person suffering from the disease, but for their care partners as well.
On Thursday April 19th, a free program entitled “Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters” will be held from 6:30 to 7:30 PM at Sunrise of Bloomingdale, 129 East Lake St in Bloomingdale. Since seating is limited, advance registration is required.
