It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

Visit Alzheimer's Weekly On
Each year, I write a letter to the Congressional Delegation from my state asking (more tike pleading) them to visit my wife who is in Final Stage Alzheimer’s and is in a nursing home. She went to their offices at the conclusion of the Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum in 2010. Two years later she was in Long Term Care. If they are to see the REAL face of Alzheimer’s, they’d have to come to her or any of the others in the final stage of this horrible disease. To date, over the years, none has accepted my invitation and it would be a profile in courage if any did. Hopefully, Kim Campbell will extend a similar invitation to her National representatives and will be more successful than I have been.
There ARE NO SURVIVORS WALKs FOR ALZHEIMER’S!! That’s a sad fact that MUST change!!!
