This year is a bit different for me as I continue to Walk to End Alzheimer's. This year will be my first year of walking in support of my Mom, who was diagnosed this past fall with Alzheimer's. I will be walking in support of my Dad, who is my Mom's primary caregiver and I walk in support of my immediate family as we learn how to cope with new challenges in the coming days, months, and years.
I will continue my tradition of Walking to End Alzheimer's in honor of my Papa Graham and Grandma Randolph and their beloved caregivers, Nana Graham and Grandpa Randolph. I walk in memory of family friends who lost a loved one or are supporting a loved one with Alzheimers. I walk in support of those who currently have Alzheimer's or who care for a loved who has this disease. I walk for me in hopes that I will always be able to remember you, remember what you and your support mean to me.
I'm walking to help reclaim the future for millions. By participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's(R), I'm committed to raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer's research, care and support.
This disease has had a profound effect on me and my family, now more than ever. I walk every year in their honor and fight so that I and others can keep our memories.
Currently, more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. And now through me, if you haven't known anyone who has suffered from this disease, you know one now.... my Mom. My future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease.
I need your support to do my part! Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research into methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure for Alzheimer's. For the millions already affected by the disease, the Association offers care, education, support and resources in communities nationwide.
Thank you for joining the movement! The end of Alzheimer's disease starts with you.
