We feel fortunate that Pat is already in his 4th year of receiving Leqembi infusions. These infusions have significantly slowed the progression of his Alzheimer's Disease and has kept him independent and at home!
Currently 7 million people in the United States are living with Alzheimer's Disease, which includes 91,000 Coloradans. Those numbers are projected to TRIPLE in the next 30 years!
There are also 11.5 million caregivers in the United States (177,000 in Colorado) who provide unpaid care to those with Alzheimer's Disease. Their care is valued at $346.6 billion nationally (over $7 billion in Colorado alone).
The Alzheimer's Association provides support to people facing Alzheimer's and their caregivers, advocates for their rights, and conducts research into prevention and treatment. We are especially in need of your support this year, as you may be aware significant funding for continued Alzheimer's Disease research has been cut.
Your donations help make possible the much needed research and support that benefit us, and millions like us. We are hopeful that with your continued help this research will eventually lead to a prevention and cure!
Thank you for your support!
