TV series lifts curtain on Alzheimer's - MayoClinic.com

TV series lifts curtain on Alzheimer's - MayoClinic.com HBO Documentary Films and the National Institute on Aging at the National Institutes of Health lift a curtain on the lives of those impacted by Alzheimer's disease, as well as the most cutting edge advances from those who treat and study the disease, in a new documentary project.

The "Los Angeles Times" wrote that the 4-part HBO documentary is "an ambitious, disturbing, emotionally fraught and carefully optimistic film exploring virtually every angle of Alzheimer's disease that can be explored on television."

If you haven't already, I invite you to watch these films and offer your reaction, beginning with "The Memory Loss Tapes." After watching, consider sharing your thoughts. What affected you the most and why?

The series is available on HBO, HBO on Demand, or you can watch for free on your computer at www.hbo.com/alzheimer's, where many other resources are available.
