How does Alzheimer’s kill you?
In: Biology
I worked at a nursing home, we had a guy with Alzheimer’s trying to walk his dog on a very rainy night and the dog ran off. He chased after her and fell into a very large pond and drowned. This was an independent living community and his wife who was his primary caretaker either didn’t notice he was gone or had taken a nap being that she was also not in the best of health. Before this he would often need help at lunchtime because he had no clue what to do to feed himself. Just sad all around.
