I have been a nurse for 7 years now, I’ve worked in the hospital, rehab, skilled nursing, assisted living and memory care for the better part of the last ten years. I have a strong passion for working with the elderly and have worked with many residents and their families who have been affected by Alzheimers. More recently Dementia has affected my family directly. My grandmother who helped raise me was placed in memory care last year.
It is a horrible disease process that deals with partial and complete memory loss. It really is devastating but I am here to ask you guys for some support in raising funds for a very important cause. Even if you cant donate much some will definitely still be enough. This is not only for the family and friends that we have seen effected but also an insurance policy for our future.
I'm walking to help reclaim the future for millions. By participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's®, I'm committed to raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s research, care and support.
Currently, more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. Our future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease.
I need your support to do my part! Please make a donation to help the Alzheimer's Association advance research into methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure for Alzheimer's. For the millions already affected by the disease, the Association offers care, education, support and resources in communities nationwide.
Thank you for joining the movement! The end of Alzheimer's disease starts with you.
