“The onset of Alzheimer’s disease is often subtle and may pass unnoticed except in retrospect,” says Florence Lau in her article on Alzheimer’s disease and spirituality.

Forgetfulness and behavioral changes are often mistakenly attributed to “normal” aging. While it is true that all of us will occasionally forget a person’s name or misplace the car keys as we get older, the distinguishing characteristic of the memory lapses in the Alzheimer’s patient is that he will not know who the person is whose name he has forgotten, and he will not remember how to use the car keys even if he were to find them. These changes in the Alzheimer’s disease patient are permanent and progressive. Recent memory is lost first, while remote memories such as those from childhood remain intact longer.17
