Every 70 seconds, someone in the U.S. develops Alzheimer’s disease. There is no cure, but there is new hope.
July 12-15, the greatest minds in Alzheimer’s research are gathered in Copenhagen, Denmark discussing the latest breakthroughs and developments in this disease. Breakthroughs that bring people like the Jolie’s hope.
Judy Jolie knew back in college her husband Tom was the one.
“Right away we knew we wanted to do something with our lives.” She said.
Tom felt the same.
“We realized we had a lot of things in common and I think that’s what basically attracted us.” He said.
The two married and began their life together on a mission trip to South America. Now, 50 years later, Jolie fondly remembers those times, but after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease eight years ago, her short term memory is fading.
“Some people can’t walk very well or run and I just you know, can’t hang onto you know, I can’t pull things out of my memory as well as I’d like to.” Jolie told Ivanhoe.
The trial, known as “SNIFF” is testing a new insulin nasal spray that could change the way we treat Alzheimer’s, and could give Jolie new hope.
