December – Watch for signs of Alzheimer’s during the holidays
http://www.alz.org/alzheimers_disease_10_signs_of_alzheimers.asp#signs

December is a busy month, filled with holidays and parties where people reunite with relatives whom they haven’t seen in months. The passage of time often makes it easier to notice changes in family and friends that might otherwise go unchecked.

Please plan ahead to promote these initiatives.
