Description

Hardly a day goes by without some newspaper story, personal memoir or medical report referring to Alzheimer's Disease, arousing personal fears or memories of relatives and friends whose lives have been changed permanently by this condition.

Grim as it is to suffer the ravages of this disease, many people are concerned as much about the end point of life as an Alzheimer's patient as they are about the day to day physical and cognitive defects.

In this book, Dr Colin Brewer explains the condition, with case histories, and addresses the issue of assisted dying, usually discussed as an option with terminal physical illness, as one way patients and their carers might gain peace of mind as the disease is diagnosed and its uncertain progress addressed.

For people who would like to feel that they will have some control over the end of their lives before the disease does its worst, Colin Brewer supplies detailed guidance on such topics as advance decision-making and living wills.
