On May 4th, the Ames Free Library welcomed Dr. Andrew Budson for a virtual discussion of his books Seven Steps to Managing Your Memory: What’s Normal, What’s Not, and What to Do About It and Six Steps to Managing Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia: A Guide for Families. Dr. Budson explained how individuals can distinguish changes in memory due to Alzheimer’s versus normal aging, what medications, diets, and exercise regimes can help, and the best habits, strategies, and memory aids to use, in seven simple steps. He also discussed how families can manage issues with memory, language, vision, behavior, driving, incontinence, sleep, and more.
