For elderly people, being forgetful is quite common. But to forget about their experiences and some parts of their past – is it due to aging, or a symptom of a serious illness called Alzheimer’s disease? This November 7, Ces Oreña-Drilon goes in depth on the disease that’s afflicting the elderly on The Correspondents.

Elderly people usually pass on the wisdom they have acquired through the years. They brag about what they have been through, cherishing their precious memories. But what if these memories deteriorate and eventually disappear?

Meet Lolo Rufino, who has forgotten his actual age, Lola Ruth, who doesn’t remember her children’s names, and Lola Suzanna, who believes that she is still a kid. Are they just going through a phase of ‘second childhood’ or are they demonstrating symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease?

What will happen to aged people inflicted with Alzheimer’s if their families could not give them sufficient time and understanding? Join Correspondent Ces as she explores all about Alzheimer’s disease in The Correspondents, this Tuesday after Bandila, on ABS-CBN.
