Lakeshore Advance, 2013-01-09, Page 1312 Lakeshore Advance • Wednesday, January 9, 2013 Forget me not pins 20th aniversary of the Alzheimer Society of Huron County "Ile year 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the Alzheimer Society of Huron County. That's 20 years of assisting more than 3000 families dealing with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Each January we cele- brate the annual Alzheimer Awareness Month, but how many of us really know that much about dementia? Did you know it's within the top 10 leading causes of death for people in Canada? Did you know people live only an average of 8 years after being diagnosed? Did you know that the research funds for Bap urch 11ighway 21 at Ausable ('ut Church 519-243-21•/4 Pastor Doug Watson Sunday, January 13th 1O:3O a.m. Worship and Sunday School (nursery provided) Kidz club: Bible stories, songs, fun games and more, SK - Cr 6, 6:45 - 8 p.m., on the second Wednesday of each month Mid -week service Wednesday 7:01) p.m. Alzheimer research are a fraction, compare 3 billion with 5 hundred thousand, to the funds dedicated towards other disease research? Haw about that in over 100 years of knowl- edge of Alzheimer's disease we've yet to even tackle a sustainable symptom delay medica- tion? Possibly most shocking, is that as a country we have no national strategy to tackle dementia - at all. We're left in the dust behind Australia, Denmark, France, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Norway, the United Kingdom and the United States - all coun- tries with a national strategy to (seal with dementia. Canada boasts of being a health- care pioneer, but \vhell it comes to dementia - nothing. We must ask why?

Is it because we seem to lose those we love before they're even really gone? Is it because there are no survivors to champion the cause, no one to shout "1 heat it!"? 'There's no getting around it, it's a sad disease a sad reality. But without tackling that reality straight 00, those that are affected by it have little hope. It's time that Alzheimer's is brought to the fore- front. It's time we make a change; time that we stand up against another diagnosis going silently unnoticed in our communities. 'that's why the Alzheimer Society of I luron County is asking you to wear a forget-me-not pin. The pins can be found at local hanks and other local participating businesses and they signify that it's time we tackle the stigma sur- rounding dementia.
