As a teenager, I watched my mother start to slowly lose her own mother to early-onset Alzheimer's disease. She slipped away from us gradually, painfully, leaving behind a wound which would never heal and the knowledge that her disease was hereditary.
But Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, I’m raising funds and awareness to advance the fight against this disease — funds that allow the Alzheimer’s Association to provide 24/7 care and support while accelerating critical research.
Families facing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia need us now more than ever — and with your help, we can be there for them. Please make a donation or register as a participant and start your own fundraising. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.
For Joann, and the countless others, we thank you!
