how is Alzheimer’s disease fatal?
In: Biology
I’ve worked in dementia care for many years, most of the deaths have seen have been secondary infections but caused by the reasons already listed, dysphagia can lead to aspiration and then pneumonia and ive seen this happen many times, no matter how careful you are with thickened fluids and modified diets, all it takes is a breath in at the wrong time 🙁
