November is National Alzheimer's Disease Awareness Month.
Alzheimer's is an irreversible brain disorder that robs people of their memory.
However, a program in Dallas aims to connect patients with their past.
Classes at the Amon Carter Museum recapture fading memories through art.
The program is open to any person at any stage of Alzheimer's.
In 1983, fewer than two million Americans had the disease.
Today, the number has soared to as many as 5.3 million and is expected to grow to 16 million by 2050.
