I became a caregiver at seventeen years old. I will never forget my first resident with Alzheimer’s. She was the sweetest and most loving lady I ever met, but did not know who her son or daughter was when they walked through the door. Watching the family work struggle through the pain of losing their mom, for the first time, and knowing they will still have to lose her again, made me want to fight for a cure.
When a loved one has Alzheimer’s or othe demntias, their family and friends lose the twice. They grieve twice. Once when the person the knew and loved, is no longer that person. Then again when the battle to the disease is lost and they pass.
Help me fight by raising funds and awareness of Alzheimer’s and other dementias!!
Thank you!!
