Hello!
Thank you so much for taking the time to come visit my page! Your support and thoughtfulness touches me and my entire family.
The Walk to End Alzheimer's disease is one of my favorite days of the year. I love surrounding myself with so many loving, caring, beautiful people who all come together with smiles on their faces while there is so much sadness behind why we each walk. Alzheimer's is a cruel thief that steals the past and the future from it's victims. That is why it's so wonderful to gather together once a year and support each other, embrace each other, share stories and feel the connection to other's on the same bumpy journey.
As a teenager I watched Alzheimer's and other dementia slowly claim my beloved grandparents and saw how that affected my parents, my brother, my aunts, uncles and cousins. It's not just the patient that suffers. Now as an adult and a parent myself, I'm watching the struggle begin with my own amazing father. It is devastatingly unfair.
There is no cure for Alzheimer's YET, but I sure as hell am going to do my part to raise as much money as I can for research and treatment and caregiver support. I am so thankful you are here right now, reading my story and showing your incredible kindness with your generous donation.
From the very bottom of my heart, Thank you!
