The photo above is my mother, Carole Diane Cuff Cade. She was diagnosed at 70 years old but our family began noticing signs when she was 67 years old. Mom was an avid reader, runner, skier, tennis player and home maker. She was a professional model, Interior Designer and an excellent fine dining hostess for her friends and family. A fabulous cook, homemaker and most importantly, her passion and first love were her three children; Eric, Holly and me and her 3 grandchildren; Sarah, Brianne and Harry.
Mom passed away in 2016 at the age of 81. Mom lived 14 years with Alzheimers. The last 6 years she could no long walk, talk or even change positions when sitting or lying down. Alzheimer took every part of her except her spirit and her heart. Mom's smile was so welcoming and spoke volumes of words. She was a wordless book and so profoundly deep as she would gaze into your eyes.
I am an advocate for the Alzheimer's Association because I know that someday there will be a cure..I am waiting with great hope and anticipation of someday we will have a Walk To End Alzheimer's with thousands of white flowers!
Please, take the time to read the message below to become more aware of this disease and the research to today.
Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s, I’m raising awareness and funds to advance the fight against this 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 participant and start your own fundraising efforts. Together, we can end Alzheimer’s disease.
Thank you for your support!
God Bless you, Shelly Love
