Alzheimer’s disease is a chilling thought for those concerned with New Zealand’s ageing population. Sufferers gradually die from the mind outwards, cared for by families who also have to contend with inadequate care facilities and public ignorance. The Mental Health Foundation is launching a big education campaign on the disease, with a television documentary screening on July 8.
