We all have a story to tell. Caregivers and their struggle to survive financially because of the burden of Alzheimer’s. Patients because of the suffering they endure day to day not knowing, not remembering. Scientists and their urgency to find a cure for this devastating disease as it reaches an epidemic in our country. Our story. Every day, the Byrd Alzheimer’s Institute strives to help those suffering from Alzheimer’s, and the family and caregivers who support them. Every day we work to find a cure. Every day we have to find ways to obtain the money to keep doing the work we do. Join the campaign to support Alzheimer’s research. Contact your legislators to help fund this important work. Every day counts and it’s worth it! Alzheimer’s disease costs all of us: whether we pay in the emotional and physical toll of being a caregiver, as a business person with lost productivity, or as a tax payer bearing the burden of building services to care the affected. Alzheimer’s costs all of us. The Legislature created the Byrd Alzheimer’s Center & Research Institute and made its mission: research, education, treatment, prevention, and early detection of Alzheimer's disease.
