Dr. Mehmet Oz is known for telling his viewers the warning signs of various illnesses. The 59-year-old doctor is now grappling with guilt after missing warning signs in his own mother. Dr. Oz recently learned that his mother, Suna Oz, is living with Alzheimer’s Disease. He opened up to People on how it felt to learn the news, just months after losing his father.
Dr. Mustafa Oz passed away in February at 93 years old. In the time after his death, Dr. Oz and his two sisters noticed changes in their mother. While some things were to be expected, they never pieced together what their stories might say about her overall health.
“Alzheimer’s is like a snake in the grass. You don’t see it. You only see the effects of it suddenly. And if there’s a wind blowing the grass, you don’t even notice the grass moving strangely. It sneaks up on you,” he told the magazine.
