Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is
a brain disorder named for
German physician Alois
Alzheimer, who first
described it in 1906.
Scientists have learned a great
deal about Alzheimer’s disease
in the century since Dr.
Alzheimer first drew attention
to it. Today we know that
Alzheimer’s is a progressive
and fatal brain
disease. As many as 5
million Americans are living
with Alzheimer’s disease.
Alzheimer's destroys brain
cells, causing problems with
memory, thinking and behavior
severe enough to affect work,
lifelong hobbies or social
life. Alzheimer’s gets worse
over time, and it is fatal.
Today it is the seventh-leading
cause of death in the United
States.
Most
people hope to age safely and
comfortably in their own home,
including those managing AD.
Many Alzheimer’s patients can
safely stay in their own home
for a period of time, and
