What To Remember When You Are Forgetting
Memory and Alzheimer’s disease specialist, researcher, educator and author Dr. Zaldy Tan wrote and released his book What To Remember When You Are Forgetting. It dives deep into Dementia and Alzheimer’s and the signs to watch out for in loved ones and how to deal with and what to do. Each section is easy to understand as well as explaining the types of Dementias and ways they can tell if it is indeed Dementias & Alzheimer’s.
Wealth of Information That’s Easy To Understand
Dr. Tan does a great job of providing a wealth of information about memory illnesses as well as discerning what could be regular aging vs Alzheimer’s or Dementia. While I knew a few things from what others with loved ones who have the disease told me, there was also a ton of information that I did not know. One example is using CT & Brain scans as ways to tell if there is a memory disease in the brain and the different Dementias such as Vascular Dementia & Lewy Body Dementia. I knew the names but didn’t know what distinguished one from the other. Or that these diseases weaken the immune system. Dr. Tan’s writing is easy to understand even when there’s wealth of information in there. I appreciate how Dr. Tan’s goal is someone who advises on how to make someone with Dementia and Alzheimer’s life better, he’s also not beating around the bush, that while there are medications that can improve memory or slow the progression, these aren’t cures. There are currently no cures yet. If you know someone with Dementia or Alzheimer’s or know someone who has a family member with the diseases, I recommend reading this book. What To Remember When You Are Forgetting came out on September 15th of 2026 and is available now, wherever you get your books! Thank you Dr. Zaldy Tan for writing an important book!
