Conclusion
Alzheimer’s disease progresses at various different rates. The duration of the illness could vary from 3 to 20 years. The areas of the brain that control memory and thinking skills are hindered first, but as the disease gets worse, cell die in other regions of the brain. Eventually, most Alzheimer’s victims will need complete care. Even if an individual has no other serious illness, the loss of brain function on its own will cause death.
