A new report finds a sharp rise in both Alzheimer's disease prevalence and the cost of caring for patients.
The Alzheimer's Association is out with its annual look at the mind-robbing disease.
An estimated 5.7-million Americans are living with Alzheimer's right now...
By 2025, that number is expected to soar to more than 7-million. And by 2050, the total cost of care for Alzheimer's is projected to increase to more than a trillion dollars. Unfortunately deaths from Alzheimer's are also rising, and more than doubled between the year 2000 and 2015.
