Karen Garner is Advocacy Manager @alzassociation. @GoldbergDaDr, Assistant Clinical Professor @VCUHealth, co-hosts w/ @CarahOng.
As Chris’s wife, this is a post I never wanted to make. I am devastated as Chris left us early yesterday morning. He fought cancer bravely, with humor, and with everything he had. He had an immense love for UVa and the Hoos. Your memory and light will shine forever, my love.
Resources for caregivers include the @alzassociation and @WeAreHFC.
Families often do not know about these resources, so please share them with your patients!
Congratulations to @lcraig02 on leading @HoosForMemory to raise more than $5000 and being a top five fundraising team for the @AlzheimersCWVA Walk To #EndAlz!
@uva@uvahealthnews @presjimryan should be proud!
Reports show that Hispanic Americans are 1.5 times more likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease than white Americans. That's why this Richmond woman who lost her father to the disease is trying to raise awareness in her community.
