how does alzheimer’s kill you?

345 views

My mom got diagnosed with early onset alzheimer’s back in 2009 when she was in her early 40s and she lost her mind a couple months after, but she still lives to this day only it’s not her anymore if that makes sense. I hear lots of people say they lost their loved ones to alzheimer’s and it kills me that my mom can’t get the same fate because (I’m gonna get alot of hate for this) death is far more humane than what she’s going through at the moment.

If anyone says that, you tell them to fuck right off because they don’t know what they’re talking about.

I’m sorry for what you’re going through. Alzheimer’s doesn’t kill people. Most people with Alzheimer’s die of pneumonia because they ‘forget’ how to swallow and food goes in their lungs. That causes an infection that ultimately kills them.
