Dementia is an umbrella term used to describe a range of neurological conditions affecting the brain that get worse over time. This infographic from the National Institute on Aging at NIH describes four different diseases that cause most cases of dementia: Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), Lewy body dementia (LBD), and vascular contributions to incident dementia (VCID).

"To be a person is to be intrinsically relational." ~ Dr. James Houston People with Alzheimer's and other causes of dementia are persons, and they will always be persons, no matter how far the disease has advanced. Because personhood is imparted, it cannot be lost due to fading cognition. There are no human "shells." Retained personhood means that relationships are possible regardless of the stage of disease. We have to tap deeply, and let the substance of their selves meld with our own, as we are fully present with them. No words have to be exchanged. Only the light, the warmth and the energy of love.
Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia steal memory, independence, judgement and more. But they can never steal love, legacy, and humanity.

"The best dementia caregivers aren't always family by blood or marriage. Some are family just by giving gentle, patient, dignified, loving care."
Fill this day and every day with gentle, patient, dignified, and loving care.

Photo of smiling woman and green, blue and yellow graphic. Text: "Dementia affects thousands of Mainers. Building strong systems of prevention, detection, and support is so important to address dementia and improve quality of life across Maine.” - Marissa Romano, MPH, Alzheimer's and Dementia Program, Maine CDC"
The Maine CDC’s BOLD program aims to reduce dementia risk, increase early detection and diagnosis, and strengthen community-clinical linkages and caregiver supports: https://loom.ly/CqsyqDY #WAM2025 #WorldAlzMonth #WorldAlzheimersDay #PublicHealth
“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.” ~ Jamie Anderson
Sharing #grief is not cathartic because it makes the grief go away -- it does not. It is cathartic because it allows others to share their love with you. Let that love envelop you.

Makrina Daniilidou underlines a key aim: make blood tests more precise by accounting for co-morbidities and other health factors.
We are validating models that combine biomarkers with clinical data for routine care. #WorldAlzMonth #WAM2025 @ihieurope.bsky.social

Anti-amyloid therapies cause ARIA in a subset of patients. We are working on blood-based biomarkers & a whole-blood ex vivo assay to help identify who may benefit and who may be at higher risk, supporting eligibility assessment & monitoring.

Accessible, low-burden testing matters. FluiDx-AD is working towards validation of saliva and plasma biomarkers as well as automated workflows that fit routine clinics, with documentation to support future regulatory steps. www.fluidx-ad.eu
#WorldAlzMonth #WAM2025
“Low-cost & simple” matters when you are waiting for answers. Earlier diagnosis helps people plan, seek support, and know what to expect. We aim to evaluate a three-test approach using saliva & blood biomarkers to support earlier, reliable decisions.

Early answers open access to support. FluiDx-AD aims to develop and validate three complementary tests: saliva risk indication, plasma confirmation, and a whole blood ex-vivo assay for ARIA risk to guide therapy decisions. #WorldAlzMonth #WAM2025 #WorldAlzheimersMonth

Early, reliable answers help families plan.
FluiDx-AD aims to develop & validate three complementary, minimally invasive tests (saliva-based risk indication, plasma-based confirmatory biomarkers, & an assay for ARIA assessment). www.fluidx-ad.eu

In FluiDx-AD, we aim to develop & validate a trio of saliva- and blood-based tests to support earlier detection, precise confirmation, and ARIA risk assessment for therapy decisions. More information: www.fluidx-ad.eu
