This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.
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.
The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.

SHORT FILM: When a ski trip is delayed for a quick visit to a Mom with Alzheimer’s, one precious moment sheds light on everything.
We think we are most free when we don’t need anybody. Exactly what Alzheimer’s represents is absolute dependency. That’s what we all need to learn:
Taking a daily multivitamin supplement can slow age-related memory decline, researchers found.
Ah, how good it feels. . . The hand of an old friend. (See pillows, posters, cards, etc.) 101003 (560×373)
Visit Alzheimer's Weekly On
Alzheimer’s & Dementia Weekly was inspired by my mother’s journey with autoimmune dementia and my dad’s with Parkinson’s dementia.
Walking beside them opened my eyes to the confusion, the courage, and the deep humanity found in families and professionals caring for someone they love.
Since its debut in 2007, this site has had one clear mission:
to separate the wheat from the chaff — to highlight only the most essential articles, studies, tools, and videos from the overwhelming river of dementia-related information.
(At last count, Google receives a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every seven minutes.) For anyone seeking clarity or support, that constant flow can be exhausting and discouraging.
Alzheimer’s Weekly filters, translates, and explains what matters most, helping hundreds of thousands of families, clinicians, and care teams around the world make sense of the latest research and best practices.
This site is dedicated to everyone who works—often quietly and tirelessly—to preserve dignity in the community of people living with dementia.
With experience in dementia caregiving, public education, and Alzheimer’s-focused writing—and a professional research background shaped in what many consider one of the world’s top laboratories—I work to make complex findings clear, practical, and genuinely helpful for both families and professionals providing care.
My goal is simple:
Translate the best science into guidance that lightens the load, strengthens understanding, and helps every person with dementia live with dignity.

I was divorced but my mother in law remained a very good friend and I was so touched that she never forgot who I was until the final stage. It's such a terrible disease but if you can manage to accept whichever stage of their life they are living each day it is easier on yourself and be gentle with explanations if you don't
May God Bless Mr Campbell and his caregivers.
We were able to create many "do you remember" moments with my Mama. She lived with us the last six years of her life. It seemed like I lost a little more of her everyday. But in the last years, she loved getting kisses from her grandchildren, eating our freshly baked cookies, catching fish from her wheel chair, and me tucking her in every night with a kiss, and an "I love you mama". These are what carry me through my tough days….
God Bless you Glen , I lost my brother to this disease back in June 2014. It's a terrible terrible disease . <3
