They could be your mothers, wives, sisters, grandmothers or friends - even you. The Alzheimer Society is kicking off Alzheimer Awareness Month with a nationwide campaign called The 72%. It aims to inform women in their 40s and older about the warn- ing signs of Alzheimer's disease, brain health and how the Alzheimer Society can help. Women live longer than men and age is a significant risk factor. That's why there are more women living with Alzheimer's disease than men. Yet the impact on women is twofold. They also account for 70 per cent of family caregivers, which takes a tremendous toll on these women who eventu- ally provide round-the- clock care. The burden is especially high for women raising families and hold- ing down jobs. "With this campaign, we're making Alzheimer's disease a women's issue," said Mimi Lowi-Young, CEO of the Alzheimer Soci- ety of Canada. "Women lead busy, hectic lives, often paying the price with their own health and well- being. We're asking them to invest time in understand- ing the warning signs. Whether they're concerned about getting Alzheimer's, have just been diagnosed or are a caregiver, we want women to reach out to their local Alzheimer Society. We can support them through- out the disease." Today, 747,000 Canadi- ans are living with some form of dementia. This number will nearly double to 1.4 million in less than 20 years. Currently approximately 1,200 people in Huron County are living Alzheimer's disease or other dementia - related conditions. This num- ber is expected to rise to 2,500 people by 2023. For every person diagnosed, there are many who are directly affected as caregivers. Alzheimer's disease is the leading form of demen- tia. It is progressive and eventually, fatal. The risk of dementia doubles every five years after age 65. Accumulating evidence shows the disease can lie dormant in the brain up to 25 years before symptoms appear. Warning signs, often mis- understood or ignored, are critical. In absence of a cure, early diagnosis allows for treatment and support so people can live as well as possible and start planning for their future needs. Common warning signs of Alzheimer's disease include memory loss, impaired judgment, think- ing or reasoning and changes in personality and behaviour that are out of character. In addition to age, other risks factors include cardiovascular dis- ease, diabetes, high blood pressure and smoking. "Women traditionally monitor the health of their families so it's even more important they understand this disease to be able to recognize changes in those they care for," Lowi-Young said. Starting January 6, the Alzheimer Society invites all Canadians, including women, to visit www.alz- heimer.ca/the72percent to take a moment and learn the warning signs and share them with friends and families on Facebook and Twitter. They can also read the stories of others living with Alzheimer's dis- ease and post their own experiences. Visitors will also be able to download other helpful resources and find their local Alzheimer Society. seaforth h u ronexpositor. com
