Aging Needs Cooperation

Found this in today's Globe - as someone who sees the effects first hand of people, particularly families, dealing with the downside of aging, this article provides good advice and some options people may be unaware.

 

Another thing people should be aware is that not all dementias are Alzheimer’s so misdiagnosis - or denial - can prevent treatable conditions from being looked after and create unnecessary suffering for all concerned.
