Alzheimer's disease – 'Not just old age'
SEPTEMBER is Alzheimer's Awareness Month and neurologist Dr Nicholas Maraj is urging the nation to face the growing challenge of Alzheimer's with compassion, planning and action.

"Think of the brain as a vast, intricate library of a lifetime's memories, skills and knowledge," Maraj said. "Alzheimer's disease is like a malfunction that starts damaging the library's structure. It corrupts the bookshelves (brain cells), destroys the books (memories), and eventually, the entire library's system begins to fail. It is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, meaning with time, it causes brain cells to wither and die, leading to an irreversible decline in memory and cognitive function."
