Help Researchers Find Cure for Alzheimer's

"More than 5.4 million Americans have Alzheimer's disease, making it the sixth-leading cause of death in the U.S.  By joining the Alzheimer's Prevention Registry, you can sign up to participate in clinical trials or research." endalznow.org

According to Mayo literature, Lewy Bodies Dementia is the second most occurring form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease.  Research that helps Alzheimer's has the potential of helping Lewy Bodies as well.  Some of the studies going on involve nothing more than filling out a questionnaire.  Those of us who are caregivers for someone with dementia know how very cruel the disease is.  Perhaps you are motivated to help eliminate it by participating in research.
