What s it like to be with someone with Alzheimer s disease?

When I knew that my loved one had Alzheimer's disease, I couldn't accept this fact, because I couldn't imagine that my grandfather, who used to love him, didn't know himself like this, and he wouldn't touch his head like before, and then give himself a candy. In front of his grandfather, he will always be a child who doesn't grow up, and he can be willful or coquettish.

But after grandpa got Alzheimer's disease, he changed to grandpa as a child, and he had to accompany grandpa like an adult and comfort grandpa. Xiaoxing's grandfather has had Alzheimer's disease for a year, Xiaoxing really can't accept this reality at first, and always cries, thinking why other people's grandfathers are fine, but his own grandfather will not know him. <>

But after a long time, he also had to accept it. After his grandfather got this disease, he always looked like a child and asked others to play with him. Xiaoxing has always been with his grandfather, without complaints or dissatisfaction.

Xiaoxing said that he has always felt that he could not repay his grandfather's love, and now that it is like this, it is like accompanying his grandfather through the last days.

For families of patients with Alzheimer's disease, there is often a need to endure both physical and mental stress, and personal social life and sleep schedules can be disrupted. Patients with Alzheimer's disease generally do not feel much in the early stage, and some elderly people and their families will think that the elderly are just old, so they are old and confused. When the disease progresses to the middle and late stages, the family will take the elderly to the hospital in a hurry, and only after the diagnosis will they find out that it is Alzheimer's disease.

At this time, if you take ** again, there is no possibility of **.

Because Alzheimer's disease cannot be treated with the current level of medical care, when family members know that their family members are suffering from this disease, they are often pessimistic. After all, patients with Alzheimer's disease will gradually lose their memory, forget their loved ones, and forget themselves. In the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, patients begin to forget things, cannot remember recent events, and also lose the ability to manage their finances, and in the middle stage, patients will experience symptoms such as fear of bathing, urinary incontinence or auditory hallucinations, anger and, if severe, violence.

Although patients sometimes know exactly who they are, it is also short-lived, and all the pain is ultimately reserved for those closest to them. Therefore, family members generally need to spend a lot of energy and time to take care of the patient, and they need to accompany the patient every step of the way to prevent the patient from running out on their own.

The daily routine of the family members will be reversed, which will not only affect their work, but also feel physically and mentally exhausted after a long time. If the family is in good condition, you may be able to hire a nanny. However, once the nanny knows that she is taking care of an Alzheimer's patient, the nanny is generally unwilling, after all, she is too tired, and if all the family conditions are good, most of them need to ask two or three nannies to take turns to take care of them and give the nanny some time to rest.

Alzheimer's disease is cruel, for the patient and family members will be physically and mentally tortured, but also because of the disease will suffer the test of human nature, some family members will be unable to bear these pain, so gradually give up on themselves. Therefore, people who take care of Alzheimer's disease need to be strong enough to be patient enough to face the patient and get through the difficulties of life together.

Their families always have a very hard time, on the one hand, they have to take care of their health, on the other hand, they have to maintain the basic life of the family, and they have to take care of them for fear of getting lost, and they work hard every day.

Family members will be particularly sad, because patients with Alzheimer's disease, they can't recognize their family members clearly, and it will be very difficult to maintain them, which will make their family members miserable.

There are many young people who also start to develop Alzheimer's disease, which is caused by too much stress.

1.Young people rarely develop Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's disease is an age-dependent disease, which is caused by degenerative changes in brain cells, and the incidence is mostly in the elderly over 60 years old, and the incidence will increase with age.

Therefore, the degeneration of cells takes time, and the age of onset will have certain characteristics, and adolescents generally do not develop the disease, so don't worry too much.

2.The onset of Alzheimer's disease is relatively insidious, and the condition progressively worsens after the onset of the disease, and the early symptoms are mainly memory loss, if young people have this symptom, it may be caused by physiological factors such as staying up late and being tired, do not worry about Alzheimer's disease, and pay attention to maintaining good living habits. Due to factors such as high work pressure, frequent late nights, irregular work and rest, and unhealthy diet, many young people have metabolic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, which are risk factors for Alzheimer's disease.

3.Although Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system, which mostly occurs in elderly patients, with the younger age of various chronic diseases, Alzheimer's disease may also occur in young people, such as traumatic brain injury, long-term alcohol consumption, smoking, and lack of sleep. Especially with the advancement of medical technology, the diagnosis of many diseases has become more convenient, and many diseases that were difficult to diagnose or could not be diagnosed in the past may be diagnosed.

4.Nearly eighty percent of college students do not sleep well, and the main problem is lack of sleep. And a new study from Sweden has found that even for healthy young people, staying up late can lead to an increase in Alzheimer's disease biomarkers in the blood.

After old age, those who are accompanied by obesity, less smoking, and social isolation, that is, less contact with the outside world, are associated with Alzheimer's disease, and the risk factors for the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

Young people often stay up late, do not pay attention to rest, drink less water, overwork at work, intemperate intercourse, unbalanced nutrition, often order takeout, do not eat fresh vegetables and fruits, and poor blood circulation, these factors will lead to cerebral insufficiency, dementia, and premature aging.

It may be because young people nowadays are very fond of surfing the Internet, and they eat very little, have irregular lives for a long time, lack of sleep, often stay up late, and are very stressed, so they will suffer from this disease.

This is because the life pressure of young people is relatively large, and they smoke and drink for a long time and stay up late have a certain impact on the body, memory declines, and neurological function begins to gradually regress.

Alzheimer's disease, with the severing of the warmth brought by forgetting, has always been regretted, painful, or avoided by people.

But it seems to me that maybe these are all feelings from the people around the patient, but what do real patients think? No one knows whether such a seeming illness is torture or relief.

When he was a child, his great-grandmother had Alzheimer's disease, and she was over 90 years old. I recall how I got along with her when I was a child, most of the time when she was sick, there was light in her eyes, and slowly it was a happy memory, holding my hand and saying some happy words, singing with me, laughing together when she sang wrong....On the contrary, I enjoyed the time with her, without the sternness and frowning of the usual adult faces, just simple and happy fragments.

Of course, there are unsatisfactory times, when she is half awake and half confused, she will have some self-blame, but these self-blames are more ** than her own memory impairment, as well as the guilt of abnormal behavior and inconvenience to the people around her, which is a manifestation of her sense of responsibility to others, in short, in the memory of her, she is simple and happy when she is not awake, and she blames herself for pain when she is awake, and our family is more looking forward to her sobriety....

Of course, one case cannot replace all, and the symptoms of Alzheimer's patients are also different, and I cannot make a judgment from physiological and pathological reasons, but I always believe that every existing moment has its meaning, and a person goes to the end, and the memory stays in his favorite and cherished moment, even if it is entangled in a moment that cannot be released, it is the choice of his life's thinking, for himself, it is not a kind of happiness, this is at least the result of self-selection....

The meaning of people's existence is not necessarily to be loved and respected by younger generations in the end, and it may be better to live on their own path.

May every elderly person grow old and be happy and healthy....

People who love to sulk and are anxious are easy to get.

01 What kind of disease is AD? Of course, this does not mean that the body becomes younger, but the patient himself slowly loses all the habits he has acquired, and loses his memory, speech ability, and self-care ability.

02 The above comprehensive dementia manifestations are typical manifestations of AD. So what kind of disease is AD? Is there something wrong with the body's **? What causes the problem?

03 AD It is a insidious, progressive development and deterioration of nervous system function. Because of the insidious occurrence and development, it may not attract everyone's attention in the early stage of the disease, but by the time it is already serious, it is already too late.

04 AD is divided into two types according to the age of onset, those who develop before the age of 65 are called Alzheimer's disease; People who develop the disease after the age of 65 are called senile dementia. The specific reasons for this are unknown, but the overall state is similar. I have had the privilege of seeing a large number of AD patients in the geriatric department, please don't look at them differently, they are all old children who need to be cared for.

05 AD is directly related to the aging of the brain (everyone should know that the nerve cells of the brain are highly differentiated full-time cells, and the number is a certain amount and will not be in a state of continuous renewal with dermal cells), and the excessive aging of the brain may be a very important factor causing the disease.

06 There are many theories, but the true truth about the disease is still a mystery, and it will take the development of medicine to a new level to elucidate the pathogenesis of the disease.

07 Since AD can't be **, then the great doctor will not get sick, so how should we prevent AD?

08 The prevention of AD should start from middle age, and it is necessary to prevent the onset of senile dementia, such as regular work and rest, not staying up late to hurt the brain, paying attention to balanced nutrition, maintaining a healthy living habits, being diligent in using the brain, maintaining a good attitude, and when the early symptoms of suspected AD are found, you must not be careless, and you need to go to the hospital in time to delay the course of the disease. The above is the introduction I brought to you about AD.

Medical professional experience, please give a thumbs up to me who is still struggling in medical school.

Alzheimer's disease is known as Alzheimer's disease.

Named after the doctor.

Aloys-Alzheimer.

Alzheimer's disease (Alzheimer'S disease, AD) is a group of symptoms caused by neurodegeneration, cerebrovascular lesions, infections, trauma, tumors, nutritional and metabolic disorders and other reasons, and is a persistent and comprehensive mental decline in the state of consciousness, which is manifested as memory, calculation, judgment, attention, abstract thinking ability, language function decline, emotional and behavioral disorders, and loss of independent living and working ability.

Watch ** Bay's documentary "Forgotten Time", I believe you will have an intuitive understanding.

Alzheimer's disease is known as Alzheimer's disease. It is a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by deterioration of cognitive and memory functions, progressive decline in the ability to perform daily living, and various neuropsychiatric symptoms and behavioral disorders. According to the survey results released by the Chinese Alzheimer's Disease Association in 2011, about 36.5 million people in the world suffer from dementia, and one person suffers from this disease every seven seconds, with an average survival time of only one year, which is one of the "four major killers" that threaten the health of the elderly.

In China, the prevalence of the elderly over 65 years old is as high as above, and the prevalence doubles for every 5 years of age, and one in three people over 85 years old has Alzheimer's. It is conservatively estimated that the number of people with Alzheimer's disease in China is as high as more than 8 million.

Alzheimer's disease, commonly known as "Alzheimer's disease", is a chronic "terminal disease" that every child does not want to happen to their parents. When you get sick, you will slowly forget your home and you...Even if you give the elderly more love afterwards, it is better to help you prevent it in advance.
