“Dementia: Is it more painful to forget, or to be forgotten?”  

In Aug at age 49, Kathy Jodway was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.  The diagnosis came only with the promise of mildly effective treatments and the faint glimmer of a future cure. Nearly six million Americans live in the looming shadow of this death sentence.  Only 200,000 are under 65 years of age.  Alzheimer’s is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States.  It is the only cause of death among the top ten that cannot be prevented or cured; its progress cannot even be slowed.  At best, doctors can treatment symptoms of the disease, masking its inevitable march.  

The cost of this disease is enormous.  The Alzheimer’s Association estimates Alzheimer's and other dementias will cost the nation 290 billion dollars.  Further, there are more than 16 million Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers providing 18.5 billion hours of unpaid care valued at $234 billion
