Every 65 seconds someone in America is develops Alzheimer's. More than 7 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer's. An estimated 6.7 million Americans 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's. 73% are age 75 or older. About 1 in 9 people age 65 and older (10.7%) has Alzheimer's. It is the 7th leading cause of death in the US. These staggering statistics are continuing to rise. 1 in 3 seniors die with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia. THIS MUST STOP.
This heartbreaking form of dementia affects many families. 11 million Americans provide unpaid care for people with Alzheimer's. There will be an estimated 13 million people suffering from the disease by 2050. Many people don't know these statistics until the sickness is at their door- affecting someone they love.
