10 WARNING SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF ALZHEIMER'S
Dear Friend,
Dad can't remember where he left his
keys. Mom forgot a birthday, something she never does. Is this just
what happens when our loved ones - or we ourselves
-?get older? Or is it something more?
While we all eventually go through
age-related changes in behavior and ability, memory loss that disrupts
daily life could be a sign of something more serious, like Alzheimer's
or another dementia. What is the difference between typical
age-related changes and Alzheimer's warning signs?

The Alzheimer's Association has
developed 10 Warning Signs and Symptoms that we hope you'll find
helpful in evaluating any changes in yourself or a loved one.

If you or your loved ones notice any
of them, consult your doctor, call the Alzheimer's Association free
24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900) or visit alz.org to learn more and
explore our other available resources. We're always here to answer
questions, offer support and make sure no one ever has to go through
these moments alone.

If you notice one or more warning
signs in yourself or a loved one, it can be difficult to know what to
do. It's natural to feel uncertain or nervous about discussing these
changes with others. Voicing worries about your own health might make
them seem more "real." Or you may fear upsetting someone by
sharing observations about changes in their memory or behavior.
However, these Warning Signs and Symptoms can be an indication of
significant health concerns that should be evaluated by a doctor.

Resources like these are just one part
of our mission to lead the way to end Alzheimer's and all other
dementia - by accelerating global research, driving risk
reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and
support.
