Alzheimer’s: Thank you for holding your grandmother’s hand when she needed comfort. Alzheimer’s is not a communicable disease. It’s a brain disorder. If your fear continues or you have other health fears you can see your doctor and maybe a clinical psychologist,. Perhaps you have a health phobia. Peace and good health.
