Helping the 'invisible children'
TRACKBACKS
Brian, thank you for getting out the word on Alzheimer's Disease. I am 52 yrs old and I have early onset Alzheimer's. There are over 650,000 people like me with the disease. Add the 5 MM elderly to that, we are heading into a national health care crisis. President Bush is cutting funding for Alzheimer's. Please keep this disease in in front of the media. If we can't get a handle on this disease, we all will be in enormous trouble.
Thank you,
Patty Smith
