Currently, more than 6 million Americans have Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to as many as 13 million by 2025. 1 in 3 Senior citizens will die from Alzheimer's or a form of dementia. Due to Covid in 2020, there was a 17% increase in Alzheimer's & related Dementia deaths. In 2022 the cost for Alzheimer's care was over $321 billion and is expected to rise to $1.1 Trillion by 2050!
As of today, more than 11 Million provide unpaid care for loved ones with Dementia. Our future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease. To stop any friend, child, parent, grandparent, sibling or spouse from every having to experience the horrible pain of losing the person you love to this disease. Please donate to help with research, and support and resources for those caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's.
The end of Alzheimer's disease starts with you. Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research into methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure.
Thank you again for your donation and for helping me fight this horrible monster called Alzheimer's that invaded and ruined my life forever.
