Alzheimer's disease is a form of dementia and affects the brain. It is a degenerative brain disease, and cannot be cured. There are many treatments available for this disease, though. Alzheimer's disease is fatal, and has a few stages of dementia that the patient suffers, from mild dementia symptoms such as a few language problems and small changes in movement, and eventually ends with the patient being completely dependant on the caregiver and death.
It was first described by German psychiatrist and neuropathologist Alois Alzheimer in 1906.
