The Importance of Early Dementia Diagnosis
Today’s St. Louis Post Dispatch had an interesting article on the topic of the importance early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease and the possible treatments available, that can reduce some of the early symptoms. It goes on to speak to the fact that over half of those struggling with this or a related condition do not seek professional guidance, nor do they bring this to their doctor’s attention for referral to a geriatrician. See the full article here.. http://tinyurl.com/ngk8ma
Caring for family members who are showing signs of memory loss can be very difficult. This article points to the fact that over half of those struggling with this condition do not get help. Avoidance of a diagnosis has two downsides. Firstly, medication and referrals to community resources are less likely accessed if the person with the memory loss is not seen by a geriatrician or multidisciplanary team of geriatric professionals. Secondly, the family is unnecessarily struggling alone, until they reach out to the Alzheimer’s Association or other local eldercare resource.
For both these reasons, I hope this excellent article has helped at least one family make up their mind to make an appointment with their doctor sooner than later. Everyone wins. Staying in the dark only extends the period of time a family unnecessarily goes through this alone. Sylvia Nissenboim, LCSW
That was spot on! I could not have done that better at all haha. Hate to admit it though

I can not believe the amount of quality material that exists on this site. The site is extremely eye catching and pulls the reader straight in, the articles are great quality and are very professionally written. I have seen too many of these sites where it looks like they pay an 8 year old to do the writing – Not this one. Your site is easily the best that I have seen in a long while.

I found a great website that can assist people with Alzheimer’s health conditions called FreedomDisability.com. This organization can assist you with applying for SSDI if you are unable to work due to your Alzheimer health condition.

Came across a real cool online resource named FreedomDisability.com for individuals who are disabled due to a physical or medical condition. I visited their online website and completed the contact form. One of their SSDI advocates called me and gave me a free evaluation on my potiential disablity case. They were very helpful to me and I encourage anyone in the same situation as I am to check them out.
