There’s a good chance someone you know is affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Over 50 per cent of Canadians know someone with Alzheimer’s disease and almost 25 per cent have someone with Alzheimer’s disease in their family. Maybe that someone is you. Alzheimer’s is a progressive, degenerative brain disease. One in 20 Canadians have it and that number is on the rise. It can strike people as young as 40 and it crosses all ethnic groups and socio-economic levels. Living with Alzheimer’s disease is difficult and you may wonder if there is an organization that can help you or if there is someone who can understand what you are going through. There is. The Alzheimer Society is a not-for- profit health organization dedicated to helping people affected by Alzheimer’s disease. Located in every province across Canada and in over 140 local communities, the Alzheimer society provides support groups for people affected by Alzheimer’s, information on the latest developments in research and educational material for people with the disease, their families, caregivers and health-care professionals. January is Alzheimer Awareness Month. This year, the focus of the Awareness Campaign is on the Society itself and what it can do to help you.
