ABOUT ALZHEIMER'S:
Alzheimer’s disease is not a normal part
of aging. It is a progressive disease of the
brain for which there is currently no cure.
It is not uncommon to lose or forget things
every now and then. But, if memory
problems get in the way of every day living,
it may be time to call us for more
information or to see a doctor.

There are more than 5.4 million Americans
with Alzheimer’s today. For every person
with the disease, another four are touched
by it as family members, friends, or caregivers.
One in ten people age 65+
and almost half of those age 85+ have
Alzheimer’s disease.
