Learn the 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's disease

As we age, our mind isn't as sharp as it once was. Although we are just as smart as we were when we were younger, we may not be as fast.

So how do we know when we should be worried about whether we might be developing Alzheimer's Disease? This question is especially important if we consider that early detection of Alzheimer's can make a world of difference for those who suffer from it and their families as well.

Join the Alzheimer's Association, Greater Illinois Chapter for a free program in Plainfield entitled "Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters" on Saturday, March 10, 2012 from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM. It will be held at Advocate Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn.
