Surviving Alzheimer's
By Mike King and Jack Kearse
"Just as the parents of the Baby Boom generation were terrified years ago by what they assumed was a death-for-certain diagnosis of cancer, their middle-aged children worry today about something they believe is even worse—living long enough to develop Alzheimer's disease (AD). Only now, the worry is as much for themselves as their parents."

Respite and Home Care
Finding balance between purpose and self-care is crucial, especially for caregivers. The Foundation advocates for caregivers to prioritize respite, stepping away from their responsibilities whenever possible. Remember, your well-being matters too. We often recommend Senior 911 as a resource to provide assistance during these breaks. #CaregiverSupport #SelfCare
