WHAT IS ALZHEIMER'S?
Dementia
Dementia is an age related neurodegenerative condition, characterised by failure of recent memory and intellectual functions (attention, language, visual-spatial orientation, abstract thinking, judgement), and tends to progress steadily.

Late stages of the disease often see patients bedridden, mute and incontinent.
