HEALTHCAST: VOLUME 20

Every 65 seconds, someone develops Alzheimer’s disease. At current rates, experts believe the number of Americans living with Alzheimer’s will quadruple to as many as 16 million by the year 2050. Every September, Alzheimer’s organizations around the world concentrate their efforts on raising awareness for - and challenging the stigma that surrounds - Alzheimer’s and dementia.  
 
Determined to continue her late husband’s Glen Campbell’s quest to educate people about Alzheimer’s disease, Kim and Ashley Campbell have made it their personal mission to improve the quality of life for people with dementia and their caregivers. Watch their free webinar below. Also, check out the new Healthy Brain initiative that former U.S. Surgeon General and former CDC director Dr. David Satcher is working on with Us Against Alzheimer’s. With remote learning in full gear, take a look at Nelson Dellis’ new book that helps kids improve their memory.  

I hope you are well and I look forward to connecting soon,
Brenda

"Gentle on My Mind: Navigating a New Normal"

Today, we’re all experiencing a new normal, living in isolation, with the comforting routines of our daily lives deeply disrupted. It’s a situation that Glen Campbell's widow Kim Campbell, and their daughter Ashley know far too well: their worlds changed in an instant when their husband and father, Glen, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Like all of us navigating the new normal with COVID-19, they had no mental preparation and quickly had to adapt to daunting challenges.

By 2030, half of all Americans living with Alzheimer’s will be Black or Latino.

Former U.S. Surgeon General and former CDC director Dr. Satcher, who serves on the boards of UsAgainstAlzheimer’s and its new center knows only too well, the work that needs to be done, having been a caregiver to his late wife Nola who struggled with Alzheimer's.  “We can make progress against deeply entrenched health disparities if we are purposeful and vigilant in our pursuit of equity.”
