Alzheimer's Disease is a national epidemic. It is a progressive, degenerative brain disease. People are aware of such a disease, but not many grasp the actuality of it.

Watch 'Alzheimers: Every Minute Counts' on PBS Daisy spends almost every moment of every day caring for her mother Sonja. Alzheimer’s is a progressive, degenerative brain disease that slowly destroys memory, thinking, and eventually all ability to function. Sonja has been living with Daisy since she was first diagnosed five years ago.

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have you, so you must love one another."

Understanding the Disease and the Person with PD

The incidence and severity of PD symptoms vary from day to day, and even from one time of day to another. It takes skill and patience to know when to assist with a task and when to simply allow the person more time to do the task independently.
It also takes time and ongoing education to learn the many symptoms of PD as well as the often complicated medication regimens that offer the most symptom relief and improve quality of life.
Caregivers must closely observe the person with Parkinson’s over time to detect and respond helpfully to subtle changes in motor function (how we move) and mood (how we think and feel).
The person you care for might not be aware of his or her changing abilities. Understanding of health risks (such as falling) may not have “caught up” to his or her actual level of risk and impairment.
