Is Casual Forgetfulness Really Alzheimer’s?
Every Tuesday at 8:54 a.m. on 95.3 WBCK, we discuss Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia with experts involved with the Miles for Memories effort in Calhoun County.
Miles for Memories is creating solutions for those impacted by dementia in Calhoun County through movement, programming and research.
This week, we address something most of us can relate to: Items we have misplaced. Is that casual forgetfulness as we get older, or is it a sign of dementia?
We discussed it with Mary Peterson of Carewell Services Southwest. Click the player below to hear her thoughts.
Hear the Miles for Memories moment Tuesdays at 8:54 a.m. during The Richard Piet Show on 95.3 WBCK.
