Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, I’m raising awareness and funds 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. I am raising these funds in honor of Allen Karlberg.
After a 5 year battle with this disease, our Dad/Grandpa passed away. The journey walking beside a loved one with Alzheimer's/Dementia is unlike anything we had ever experienced. There were so many ups and downs along the way, but we ultimately learned to embrace the moments of smiles, head nods and chuckles, and every once in awhile, hearing a few words we could actually understand. As a family, we felt as though we had grieved the loss of the Dad/Grandpa we once knew over and over again throughout the 5 year battle. This isn't a journey anyone should go through alone.
Families facing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia need us — and with your help, we can be there for them. Please make a donation or register as a participant and start your own fundraising efforts. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.
Thank you for your support!
