In light of recent celebrity deaths and a growing movement to remove the stigma from mental health issues, depression and suicide continue to make front page news.

The Healthy Geezer: memory loss and Alzheimer’s disease

I’m 78 and I'm forgetting things more often now. Should I be worried? For starters, worrying is a waste of time. If you think your forgetfulness is the sign of the onset of Alzheimer's, get to a doctor for a check-up.
