ultimately cure this disease or ended sore vision is a world without alzheimer's so. We are committed to both things every day helping those families here now but also. Reminding ourselves that we do want a future without this disease. I was looking at your website and there's tons of information there is probably a great place to start if if you were or some in your life is is being affected by alzheimer's Exactly there's a lot of online resource is that people can access that have information on communication strategies they can. Finds a local support groups that are happening in our area. And really just get connected and we always encourage people to do that sooner so that they can get support as soon as they need it rather than wait. And the USA is ails the double ORG that's correct that's an easy wonderment and kids yes but I'm not big. A lot of times we think of alzheimer's and dementia and is kind of the same thing but there are you tell me about the differences. He had I think it's so interesting because you hear people say wall mom has just a little bit of dementia And dementia is a word that's actually an umbrella term that we used to describe cognitive impairment. So it's an umbrella term and alzheimer's disease follows this and falls under that umbrella. So alzheimer's diseases the most common form of dementia but there's other form users Louie body vascular dementia So good. Almost like be seeing the word cancer like saying mom has cancer are not specifying which type of cancer whether that was breast cancer are. Pancreatic cancer could be mere out of types of cancer. So that's what they're really saying when they're saying dementia so it was like to make sure the public knows that. That makes sense yes so would do we know we need the causes of dementia and alzheimer's All subs or really looking out right now Alzheimer's Association has really dedicated to looking. At all aspects. The disease what is causing him what could potentially prevent the disease as laws how to potentially stop that so. We do know that there are certain lifestyles. And that can help with their lowering the risk of dementia and so we're really looking at that right now to see what those correlations are. Gasol on the website that who the leading cause of alzheimer's is aging. Yes so so what a what are we do and I always pray there are aging aging is the largestdecline. So that is the number one risk factor. How prevalent is alzheimer's and dementia . It's a six leading cause of death in the United States. I'm to give you some exact numbers there are six point five million Americans currently living with alzheimer's today. And that within or again we have an estimated 65000. And people living with this disease over 65. And Washington andpeople as early as her thirties we've heard have. Displaying signs of alzheimer's disease back again that's a very small percentage of people. Most of it is about the age of sixty crime primarily of primarily 65 okay. So what are some of the things we can be doing to help lower the risk of of alzheimer's and dementia .
