In today's episode of The Truth, Lies, & Alzheimer's Show, Lisa opens a window into the world of what living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia is realistically like for those who are living with it. She shares her experience of taking The Virtual Dementia Tour, which simulates for people what it's like to live with dementia. The Virtual Dementia Tour is a scientifically proven method of building a greater understanding of Alzheimer's disease, by allowing us to personally experience what dementia can do to a person. Geriatric specialist, P.K. Beville devised the virtual Dementia Tour, as a way for us to walk, for a time, in the shoes of those afflicted with dementia. The virtual tour employs four components to alter the subject's senses and perception and simulate the day-to-day experiences of people with dementia and Alzheimer's. Hear about Lisa's extraordinary experience taking the Virtual Dementia Tour.

In her What's New Segment, Lisa shares an article about an NIA-funded study on how heart attacks may be linked to accelerated cognitive decline over time.
