Guy and I are on a journey we never expected. A diagnosis of frontal temporal dementia eight years ago changed our lives, along with our family and friends, forever! A robust social life with familiy and friends has been replaced with quiet daily routines and short visits with "strangers".
Thanks to the advances in treatment for Alzheimer’s, I believe medications have helped his ability to stay on task with dehydrating fruits and vegetables for Guy's Spice Shack and helped support positive behaviors.
We are truly blessed to be supported by family, friends and the Maidstone community. During the next several months, as a proud co-captain of our Maidstone Memories Alzheimer's Team, I will be participating in several fundraising events over the next several months which include:
- WEINERS ON THE WATER (6/22 @ 4 pm)
- ICE CREAM SMORGASBORD (7/10 @ 2 pm)
- PIZZA FOR A CURE (6/29 @ 4 pm)
- PADDLE PALOOZA(8/03 @ 8 am)
- WALK TO END ALZHEIMER'S (8/31 @ 8:30)
By participating in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s and other fun events, I am raising awareness and funds to advance the fight against this horrific disease — funds that allow the Alzheimer’s Association to provide 24/7 care and support while accelerating critical research.
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 member of our Maidstone Memories Team and walk with us! Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.
Thank you for your support!
