We Have Recovered from Alzheimer’s, and Our Mission Is to Share Our Story with the World
Our mission is to share our personal stories of how we’ve recovered from Alzheimer’s, empower others to follow a similar path, and advocate for everyone needing help to prevent or reverse the disease.
In the United States today, approximately 7 million people suffer from Alzheimer’s, and probably at least 55 million globally. In contrast, the number of known Alzheimer’s survivors remains very small, almost unheard of. Most doctors and experts assume we don’t exist.
But we are here in flesh and blood, ready to tell our personal stories and share our journeys from despair to healthy lives. In addition to our own medical histories, we have scientific research and results of clinical trials. We also share resources such as recent scientific articles, information on where you can get tested, and the latest on the most effective treatments for Alzheimer’s.
We exist. We live.
We are proof that a healthy life is possible beyond a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. And we are passionate about sharing it with you, your family and all those who have a genuine interest — by meeting you and giving you the opportunity to meet us.
You need not be an Alzheimer’s survivor to be a part of the Alzheimer’s Survivors Foundation. Our foundation also welcomes friends and family who have suffered alongside us, caregivers, health practitioners, and all those interested in cognitive decline. They are ambassadors for Alzheimer’s Survivors, because they are our advocates, and if you’re among them, we value your membership highly.
