'Alzheimers Speech\r'

'http://www. nia. nih. gov/Alzheimers/Resources/images. htm I scarce passed out a blank add-in to everyone I would equivalent you to pass a sort an analog quantify that reads the m 4:45, touch on to this piece of paper and I’ll explain it a little enactment new-fashionedr. You might be wondering why there is a picture of an remote woman on the screen. Well, that lovely onetime(a) woman Is my grandmom and she was form buty diagnosed with Alzheimer’s distemper about 6 years ago, she was my intake for this speech . Mayo Clinic defines Alzheimer’s to be a unhealthiness that causalitys soul changes that little by little descend worse.Alzheimers is the most common catch of dementia dementia is a gathering of brain disorders that cause progressive exit of intellectual and social skills, severe adequacy to interfere with day-to-day life. in that respect argon 2 types of Alzheimers, the most common is c tout ensembleed late flack alzheimers which symptoms of the disease emerge after(prenominal) age 65, the other is called early onset alzheimers, this occurs in a small numerate of spate who generate the disease in their 30s 40s and 50s When a soulfulness has Alzheimers the brain slowly loses its ability to make and retrieve memories and border information.A friends name that was once familiar in a flash eludes them, a recipie that they used to make all the time now is impossible to remember, family members name calling are and even a spouces causa are forgotten. Mood and soulfulnessality changes potentiometer also occur, most of the time you go forth notice increased anxiety or agression.. although sometimes you will notice that person become more introverted and alleviate eventually this DZ makes it impossible for people to live without the help of others. That help often comes from the family members or an assisted living facilityAn easy trend to explain this dz is to pretend about an hoary light bulb in a lamp, in the beginning its on.. then sometimes it glitters until eventually it is off. So what exactly is handout on in the brain that causes it to flicker and finally turn off? The brain works by sending signals. chemic messengers called neurotransmitters allow the brain to communicate with from each one other. People with Alzheimer’s have a decreased amount of neurotransmitters, they also develop deposits of plaques and the fibers in the brain begin to tangle. This prevents the cells from work properly.Over time the brain begins to shrink and all of these factors put together cause a steady decline in retentivity and mental function. Earlier I had you draw a quantify showing the time 4:45 on it. This is real one of the many tests that are administered to people who are suspected to have Alzheimer’s. There is no specific test for Alzheimers the only way the dz can be diagnosed with realised accuracy is after the person has died and a microscopic examination o f the brain reveals the trace plaques and tangles that I talked about earlier With that in mind, Hopefully the clock you drew looks equivalent this (picture of clock on screen).For a person who is believed to be suffering with Alzheimer’s their clock looks something like this. This picture actually shows you the progession of psyche with Alzheimers, you can see that the first clock is correct and as time goes on the image becomes more disorted. When my grandmom was diagnosed with alzheimers I didnt think much of it, I thought that she could exclusively take some medicine and she would get better but Currently, there is no cure for Alzheimers. Alzheimer’s is the sixth-leading cause of final stage in the country and the only cause of death mong the top 10 in the United States that cannot be prevented, cured or even slowed There are scantily drugs to help cope with the secondary aspects of alzheimers like becoming anxious or nervous. Alzheimers disease has no surviv ors. It destroys brain cells and causes memory changes, peregrine behaviors and loss of body functions. It slowly and sorely takes away a persons identity, ability to touch with others, think, eat, talk, walk and find his or her way home. This DZ is something that is close to my heart and i would however like to thank you all for listening.\r\n'
