Dear Friends and Family,
It has been 14 1/2 years since my husband Cliff's death at age 62 and twenty years since his diagnosis at age 55 in October 2004. I think of Cliff every day and still miss him. It's such a tragedy that Cliff was so young when he contracted Alzheimer's! Even though Cliff is gone, 7 million Americans currently have Alzheimer's or another form of dementia and that number is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by 2050. Every year, good friends of mine receive the diagnosis of Alzheimer's. Our future is at risk unless we can find a way to change the course of this disease.
Alzheimer's isn't waiting, and neither am I. I'm participating in the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's® and fundraising for Alzheimer's care, support, and research. I am walking in memory of Cliff and all other friends and family members who have suffered from this devastating disease.
This year, the Denver Walk to End Alzheimer's will be Saturday, September 20th at Denver City Park. Will you support me in the fight to #ENDALZ by making a donation on my fundraising page? And, if you can, please join me in person for the Denver Walk at City Park.
I hope to make a big contribution in the fight against Alzheimer's by reaching my personal fundraising goal of $5,000.00, and I'd be so grateful if you sponsor me. Your support of the Walk to End Alzheimer's will help the Alzheimer's Association provide Alzheimer's care and support and advance critical research for all those affected by this devastating disease. Together, we can end Alzheimer's. Please consider supporting my efforts with a donation.
Together, we can reclaim the future for millions. Please visit my fundraising homepage to sign up or to donate today.
