Alzheimer’s is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease characterized by memory loss and impaired cognition, with as many as 5.4 million Americans living with the disease. Today Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States and the 5th leading cause for those 65 and older. The symptoms of Alzheimer’s slowly creep into our lives and affect loved ones in profound ways. Throughout the years, research and medications have helped, hindered and or even prevented some of the serious symptoms, but currently, there is no cure.
