Dear Family and Friends,
Why? Why do individuals and families suffer in silence with various forms of dementia and Alzheimers? Why is care so expensive? Why hasn’t there been more research? Why don’t we talk about it like we do other conditions? Why isn’t there more early diagnosis and treatments? Why do I care so much about raising funds for the Alzheimer’s Association and actively participate in the walk each year?
I walk because the eighteen year olds entering college might be the ones to find a cure with these research dollars. I walk because the family next door may need to use the support services offered by the Alzheimer’s Association. I walk because there is a 24/7 support line dedicated to families and caregivers who need help. I walk because all of this requires support and until we can diagnosis and treat all forms of dementia and Alzheimer’s we need this support. I walk because the toddler playing at the park might grow up in a world without dementia and Alzheimer’s.
I am asking you to join in my fight to continue the amazing efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association as we host the Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Lawrence, KS on Saturday, October 19th.
Thank you for your support of me in my Walk to END Alzheimer’s.
Much Love,
Haley Bruns
