What is Alzheimer’s disease? How does it affect our elderly? And what can we do to help prevent and manage it?
What is Alzheimer’s Disease?
Alzheimer’s is a progressive brain disorder that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. It’s the most common form of dementia and is not a normal part of aging. Early diagnosis and proper care can improve quality of life and slow progression.
Who Does It Affect?
Alzheimer’s primarily affects older adults, especially those over 65. However, it can also appear earlier. Risk factors include age, genetics, poor cardiovascular health, and low education levels. In Ghana, many elders go undiagnosed due to limited awareness and access to care.
Recognizing the Symptoms
Common signs include:
Memory loss that disrupts daily life
Difficulty completing familiar tasks
Confusion with time or place
Trouble with words or speaking
Mood changes and withdrawal from social activities
Dispelling Myths & Superstitions
In some communities, Alzheimer’s symptoms are wrongly attributed to witchcraft or spiritual punishment. This leads to stigma, neglect, and mistreatment of elders. ARDAG works to educate families and faith leaders to replace fear with understanding and compassion.
