It's normal to be forgetful with aging.  Alzheimers is a lot more than 
being forgetful but also difficult to diagnose.  I have a close friend 
who has been diagnosed with early stage Alzheimer's.  If he and his wife 
hadn't told me I wouldn't know.  But she could tell something was wrong 
with him.  She says it's not hard to tell something is different if you 
live with him day and night.  He has since been put on a couple of 
different medications and after some dosage adjustments he seems to be 
doing very well.  His condition seems to have largely stabilized.  He 
just completed a battery of tests that showed no significant difference 
than the same tests administered a year ago.

Probably the only significant difference to his lifestyle after 2-3 
years is that for the past year he has not been allowed to drive at 
night.  He does fine during the day but can get lost even in familiar 
places at night since he does not recognize what should be familiar.
