Thank you for noting the new Alzheimer's Association report on early onset dementia in the Daily News on Wednesday, June 7. The report combines the very small amount of research on this topic with stories and quotes from people with early onset Alzheimer's and other dementias and their care partners to begin to piece together a picture of early onset dementia in the U.S.
Readers who are interested in the perspectives and experiences of people with Alzheimer's (and other dementias) should take a look at the 14-page summary or the full report available at alz.org.
