Hello friends and family,

Hope. It is a word that means different things to different people, but for those living with Alzheimer's (and all of those who do not have it), hope means a cure. We are now in the era of treatment.  The third treatment, Donanemab, and the second treatment, Lecanamab, are both now on the market.  We don't have a cure yet, but we now have treatments that can slow the progression of the disease, and that is a huge step forward. Your help is needed to take that next step.

This year, our Rockland Walk is on Sunday, October 20th at Clover (Boulders) Stadium! 

Once again, I will be a member of team #goforgold, which will be walking in honor of my friend Marni's dad, Howard Gold, and her mom, Lila Gold. It is great to give a donation, but even better, come join team #goforgold by clicking on the yellow "Join my Team" button below, and raise funds yourself.

Read on for some information about Alzheimer's and dementia if you are interested:

The numbers are staggering -

1 in 3 seniors dies with Alzheimer's or another dementia

It kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer...combined
