For years I’ve been hearing there’s going to be an epidemic of Alzheimer’s when we baby-boomers reach our senior years. Just had that brought back to me today, and I realized, we’re there. So many of my friends, acquaintances, co-workers, family, etc. are in their 60s, or like me, fast approaching them. They are beginning, will begin more and more I suspect, to ask questions because I was caregiver to a mother with Alzheimer’s. It’s time to think about that again, to gather and share information again, to catch up my old Web site, to do a 2nd ed. my books even, eventually. Along with an economy that’s falling apart, we are about to have an epidemic of Alzheimer’s, and I’ve got to get ready. Been there, done that, with my mother, have distanced myself from that, but it’s time to come back, to be ready, to be available, because unless there’s a cure found, it will be an epidemic like none other.
