Hi,

You need to check this with a doctor first.

"Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible, progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest tasks. In most people with the disease—those with the late-onset type—symptoms first appear in their mid-60s"

"What Are the 7 Stages of Alzheimer's Disease?

Stage 1: No Impairment. During this stage, Alzheimer's is not detectable and no memory problems or other symptoms of dementia are evident.

Stage 2: Very Mild Decline. ...

Stage 3: Mild Decline. ...

Stage 4: Moderate Decline. ...

Stage 5: Moderately Severe Decline. ...

Stage 6: Severe Decline. ...

Stages 7: Very Severe Decline."

You can find a lot of information by Goggling as well.

Take care.
