Retirement with Sheri & Randy (formerly Sherapy)

Could scientists be getting closer to slowing Alzheimer's disease?

What if the future of Alzheimer's isn't one miracle cure... but a series of small breakthroughs that change everything?

After helping care for my mom through nearly 10 years of Alzheimer's, I pay close attention whenever new research offers hope. In this solo episode, I'm sharing two recent studies that really caught my attention.

The first explores a new discovery that may help explain how Alzheimer's spreads through the brain—and how scientists may one day be able to slow that process.

The second highlights research suggesting that nearly half of dementia cases could potentially be prevented or delayed through healthy lifestyle choices.

This isn't about false hope or miracle cures. It's about progress. It's about possibility. And it's about remembering that researchers around the world are working every day to change the future for millions of families.

If Alzheimer's or dementia has touched your life, I hope this conversation leaves you feeling just a little more hopeful.
