Alzheimer’s Signposts and Gauging Your Own Vulnerability
Led by Bob Bell with Laura Byer of the Alzheimer’s Association
of the Greater Capital Area (ALZ/NCA)
More than 6 million Americans have Alzheimer’s Disease. Seventy-two percent of them are age 75 or older, and the number is expected to increase around 10 percent over the next decade. Statistics aside, we all need to be aware that the disease might strike us, a loved one, or a friend and do what we can to forestall or mitigate its impact on our lives.
Bob Bell, our session leader, is a community educator with the Alz/NCA. He has a B.A. in Social Sciences and Social Work with an M.A. in Gerontology. He is also a Certified Dementia Practitioner.
Bob will share with us the major warning signs of Alzheimer’s and then hold a Question and Answer period, starting with a few pre-identified questions and then followed by participant comments and questions. Interested parties are encouraged to submit any existing questions when RSVPing for the session. Submitted questions will be collated and included at the beginning of the Q&A period of the session.
