More than 15.5 million Americans (family members and friends) provide unpaid care for a person with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia.
Women make up 65% percent of caregivers for people with these illnesses, putting them at the center of the growing Alzheimer’s crisis.
Alzheimer’s disease makes people forget things which can frustrate family members or friends.
Symptoms include memory loss and the inability to do normal tasks like cooking and dressing.
