Memory
Walk for Alzheimer's affected Persons; September 21 2007
In collaboration with Rotary Club of Chembur, Dignity Foundation staff and
Members took a Walk in Chembur on the evening of Sept 21, to register support
for people suffering from Alzheimer’s and the consequent memory loss.
“Alzheimer’s” Memory loss can happen
to anyone.
We wish to awaken your members about this ailment"
As part of our nation-wide commitment to provide support and care to persons
afflicted with this dreadful disease of the brain, we also deliver lectures
in various Fora outlining the features of the ailment and how stealthily the
disease enters a family. And what curative measures exist to treat the disease.
Importantly how a Day care Centre, like the one in Dignity Foundation premises
in Topiwala Lane, can bring about quality life to members.
Alzheimer's disease and the related dementias are chronic progressive diseases
and ultimately fatal. Dementia is a permanent, progressive disease that affects
mostly people after 55 years.
Alzheimer’s Disease results from the death of nerve cells and/or the
loss of communication among these cells. Currently there is no proven way
to prevent Alzheimer’s Disease.
