Alzheimer's Disease: A Relentless Multi-Dimensional Illness - Paperback

by D. O. Richard Ng (Author)

To inform the public and readers that Alzheimer's disease is a multi-causal chronic age-related illness with many contributing and aggravating factors. However, there are also many modifiable factors in your control to slow and halt the progression of the disease, and to improve the symptoms and quality of life. This book is written for better understanding of the unpredictable and devastating nature of Alzheimer's, to dispel any of its myths, and to encourage and bolster awareness of the mitigating and beneficial circumstances in the development of this terrible affliction. Author is inspired to write this book to lend supports, both mentally and spiritually, to the loving and grieving caregivers on their long, grueling journey with their silently suffering loved ones. One of the goals of this book is to help individuals inflicted with this cruel, protracted and devastating disease to have some quality of life and dignity with as much independence and inter-dependence in their struggles. Along with the continuing medical research and heightened social understanding, we can delay, slow and halt the progression of the disease, and hopefully reverse its course with a cure eventually.
