Alzheimers disease seems to have touched so many lives and my own Mum was diagnosed with it at the age of 59 and lasted for 9 years before passing away (it's the anniversary of her death today).

Having visited a young persons dementia unit this evening and seeing the number of people under 65 suffering from this very wicked and debilitating disease, I feel saddened that there is still very little spent on research ............
