My mom lived the last 10 years of her life with Alzheimer's. Two years after her diagnosis, my dad passed away and overnight I became a long-distance caregiver. I was a sandwich generation caregiver, simultaneously caring for young kids and an aging parent. The responsibilities of being a mom, daughter, wife, and employee were overwhelming at times, but throughout the ten year journey with my mom, the Alzheimer’s Association was a constant source of information, education, and support.
Now that I work for the Alzheimer’s Association, I am passionate about connecting people with available resources, advocating for those who can no longer advocate for themselves, and raising awareness and money through participation in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s.
Please consider making a donation to help the Alzheimer’s Association advance research into the prevention, treatment, and cure for Alzheimer's. Together we are fighting for a different future!
