“How do people actually die from Alzheimer?”
In: Biology
My grandmother recently passed with Alzheimers. She was surprisingly still mobile, however, she didnt recognize people, babbled alot, and hallucinated. She started losing to ability to swallow but was on pureed foods.
What did her in was that she kept falling. At 89, falls are common. We wanted her to use a walker but she of course never remembered. So one day she fell and hit her head. Most likely lead to a brain bleed.
Alzheimers patients generally die from rather common issues like falls or infections that wouldnt normally be deadly to a healthy person.
