Thank you! ❤️
My bro in law, a Vietnam vet, is in a memory care facility now. I wish there was some way to get back even a small bit of the wonderful person he was. Such an awful disease. 💔😥

Thank you for this. I lost my mom to ALS. I sent my Senator (Hawley) and Congresswoman (Wagner) an email and the response was ‘I’m not on the health committee, but…’. They’re both worthless.

This should be a cause DJT should endorse. It runs in his family. He clearly has also has it.

So many have been touched by this terrible disease, yet the current administration wants to cut funding on this and many other diseases.

Thanks sis!

One of the things we found in some of the data we analyzed was that Alzheimers & memory care patients had much higher rates of needing Adult Protective Care intervention because of physical and financial abuse. In addition to funding research for treatment and prevention, harm reduction also is impt

Make sure they remember that many with dementia and Alzheimers rely on medicaid for their care

Finding out my biological mother had Alzheimer’s before she died, her father died of it and her mother also had it scares me to my core. I am all in for all Alzheimer’s and Dementia research funding available. It may be my future.

Excellent! Great work! My best friend is in DC advocating for music education this week. If you run across a bald musician from Wisconsin, say hi to Rich!

Can we try to secure our freedom first? Because without that freedom, there will be no research. Period.

Seems like it would be cheaper to cure it than to treat it. While it's likely AI is going to help accelerate some of the research, if we double or triple the investment in research, we could probably get that back ten-fold or more in savings on the treatment side. Thanks for advocating!

Whoa no way! My uncle is a funding director for the association down south. He told me today there was a lot of yall up here in dc. Thank you for your voice!!!

Such an important reaserch. This is a cruel illness. It affects more and more people. Unfortunately families affected by it often have to deal with it on their own . There is no effective treatment , no cure.
