I dont understand HOW that test could possibly tell that you have the disease.

I never take things the wrong way

I am so sorry your nan has this disease. Mine had it too.

Alzheimer's brings a deterioration in the functional abilities of daily living. At the beginning the person will express feelings of incompetence and loss of control.

Failing doesn't necessarily mean it's Alzheimer's. There could be a number of reasons. But it's always good to check and seek medical advice.

Early detection allows patients to have a better quality of life.
