Alzheimer's Disease became very personal to me when my husband's aunts and uncles started being diagnosed with it. Out of 11 children, 5 were diagnosed and died as the result of Alzheimer's and related dementias. That statistic is sad enough, but even more so was that Dennis, my husband of 44 years, died as a result of Alzheimer's.. He was 68 and was an accomplished and beautiful soul. Alzheimer's will never take that away from him. I miss him every day but I'm grateful that we had 45 years together. 

My story is not unique. This has become a disease with staggering statistics. I'm grateful for all of the Alzheimer's warriors who work so diligently to get the word out. We must raise awareness and funding for the research and care needed to end this!   

By 2050, the number of people age 65 and older with Alzheimer’s disease is projected to reach 13.8 million.  

Please give generously so that your family isn't affected like so many are.

In memory and much love for the Scherr Family~
