Baby Boomers and The Age of Alzheimer's Disease

An interesting OP-ED article from The New York Times was sent to me recently.  It is concerning Baby Boomers and Alzheimer's Disease.

We've all been saying "the Baby Boomers are coming" when talking about the future of residential care.  It's true!  Starting January 1, 2011 there will be 10,000 Boomers turning 65 each day.  Startling!  So, we need to plan for it.  One area we need to focus is in the field of Alzheimer's research.  Have a look at the N.Y. Times article.  It's an eye-opener.
