How do I deal with the permanent effects of Alzheimer's disease?

Understanding Alzheimer's itself is of paramount importance. In the past there was a lot of shame and stigma associated with Alzheimer's disease, and unfortunately no one seeks out help when that is occuring. Now we understand more about this illness. This is an illness that can strike literally anyone, so long as they live long enough. In essence, understanding what it is and doing something about the problem makes the most sense. So, again, being open to the aspect of identifying Alzheimer's and being aggressive about treating it are very important things. Maintaining one's social contacts and staying involved with different types of group activities should also always be encouraged.
