Roundup of Alzheimer’s Notes for Celebrity Health & Wellness Week
June 15, 2008 by Mary Emma Allen
Filed under Diseases & Conditions
Throughout the week, the Health and Wellness Channel has been focusing on Celebrities and Health.
Some are Hollywood celebrities; others come from other walks of life. By going public with their illness, they often make the world more aware and more willing to talk about a health situation that families keep”hidden in the closet.”
You, the caregiver, and your Alzheimer’s patient also are celebrities and heroes in this challenge with a devastating disease.
Liz and I have written a number of posts on this topic this week. In case you’ve missed any and would like to check them out, here is a roundup:
