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. Families facing Alzheimer’s and all other dementia need us — and with your help, we can be there for them. I'd love it if you would make a donation or join my team. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.

I first encountered this cruel disease as a teenager, watching it attack my grandmother. More recently, I cared for both my parents as they battled dementia at the same time. That was the most difficult season of my life. I personally know the huge toll (emotional, physical, and financial) that this horrible disease takes on both those who have it and their families. 

If you are lucky enough not to have not been touched by dementia yet, you will be. One in three people aged 85 will have dementia. You can help the development of a cure, or at least a breakthrough to slow or stop the advance of this disease, before you join their ranks. Funds will also help provide quality care so that those suffering can live with grace and dignity. 

People with dementia are more than what they can remember. My parents are gone now, but I walk to honor them and my grandmother before them.

Thank you for your support!
