National Alzheimer’s Awareness Disease: On Hold Script

“Today, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease has soared to nearly 5.4 million.  Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that damages and eventually destroys brain cells, leading to memory loss and changes in thinking and other brain functions. It usually develops slowly and gradually gets worse as brain function declines and brain cells eventually wither and die. Ultimately, Alzheimer’s is fatal, and currently, there is no cure.  The Alzeimer’s Association invites you to “Go Purple with a Purpose” for Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness and Caregivers Month. No one should face Alzheimer’s alone, so get involved this month, and help raise awareness for Alzheimer’s disease.  There are an array of events across the country, so visit www.alz.org and find out what’s going on near you.”
