My dad is starting to get older and has started to get all of the symptoms recognized here. I'm living with him right now and am just hoping to correspond maybe for some guidance on this

We know that it can be difficult to see a friend or family member suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. Talk to your support system and your loved one's doctor about how to handle difficult moments.

Whether you or a loved one have been diagnosed, knowing you’re not alone and having a supportive team that can answer your questions is one of the best ways of learning about Dementia and what life can be. To find a support group near you, we recommend asking your health care team, searching online, or doing a social media search. We don’t have specific groups that we endorse because you have to find the one that works best for you.
