Early Onset of Dementia

My name is Bonnie and I live near Dillsburg, Pa. I am 57 and was just diagnosed with early onset of Alzheimer’s. I am trying to get treated with Leqembi. I am on a wait list… they said maybe July. I was just reaching out to learn or hear about anything that is helpful for this disease. The more I know, the better prepared I can be.
