No one would argue that living with Alzheimer’s is difficult to cope with as individual struggle to grapple with the diagnosis and prognosis that is so devastatingly the hallmark of the disease.

As individuals with the disease and those who love them come to terms with the disease understanding the nature of the disease and the relationship between the brain and the manifestation of symptoms is paramount to being able to live successfully with the disease.

The first thing individuals should do when facing Alzheimer’s is to arm themselves with the facts about just how powerful the human brain really is. It controls bodily functions, thoughts, our emotions and our personality. It is at the center of all of our experiences, every action and every decision we make in life.

Alzheimer’s is a disease of the brain and not a mental illness. It is a medical condition which as such, responds to medication and non-medicated approaches to relieving the symptoms and even stalling the progression of these symptoms so that the individual and their loved ones can have the time to manage the disease successfully.

Because the brain controls every aspect of who we are and how we act and think it is no wonder that having the disease has an impact on your entire life.

The disease can act differently in different patients. Some experience a slow progression of the disease and others may watch as their loved ones goes rapidly through the stages of the disease, seemingly changing right before their eyes. There are predictable stages that the disease will progress through although the time that the disease will take to go from early stage to late stage of the disease cannot be predicted only that the disease will progress through the stages. How rapidly or slowly the progression happens cannot be predicted a head of time. Certain medications can delay the progression giving loved ones more time together (on average 6 months to 1 year) but the progression will proceed eventually through all of the stages.

The disease will affect different parts of the brain at different times. The stages can even overlap so that symptoms from different stages are being experienced at the same time.

Living successfully with Alzheimer’s disease means learning the stages and how they progress so that understanding can take place that makes it easier to cope with the disease. Living successfully means allowing the individual to achieve tasks in small steps so that he or she doesn’t become too overwhelmed. It also means recognizing that individuals are not to blame for the disease and the environment can be made more acceptable and friendly towards them such as changing a noisy environment into a quiet one.
