Why do I walk? I continue my passionate support for the local Walk to End Alzheimer's in honor of my mother Mary, who had the disease, and my dad Maury who lovingly cared for her as many years as he possibly could. This horrible disease also took the life of my Brother Bill Cavanaugh who struggled over 7 years under the loving care of his wife Sharon. I have seen so many friends and family struggle and currently struggling with the challenges of this debilitating disease. It is the 6th major cause of death in the United States which there is no known cure for.
I realize there are so many needs and requests that you are asked to contribute to. This is the only cause that I ask my friends and family to support because of my passion to End Alzheimer’s. Your donation will help us to continue to offer care and support programs and services to the millions of Americans living with Alzheimer’s and their caregivers, who also suffer greatly. The critical support will also help to advance research that will one day lead us to methods of prevention, treatment and ultimately, a cure for this disease.
Every dollar counts in this fight. Thank you for supporting the movement and me personally!
