Most of you don’t know, but Alzheimer’s carries a special place in my heartbecause of the impact it has had on a very special person in my life. I’ve watched helplessly as this disease ravaged her family. I watchedher as she lived in the darkness of disease progression, the reality oflosing someone you love while they are still here and the search for qualitycare and some form of comfort as her family member experienced the fear andsadness that comes with losing your ability to understand the world you arein.  I had never been close to anyone affected by this and this experiencehas left a mark on my heart and a desire to make a difference.

So if you have some charitable donations to make up for this year'stax write off or if you happen to be wondering what to get me for my 50thcumpleaños ….. please consider donating to thiswonderful cause via my fundraising page.  It would mean the world to me tomeet my goal and there is nothing else I would want for my half centurycelebration!

El Alzheimer no se detiene y nosotros tampoco. Al participar en la Caminata para acabar con el Alzheimer de la Asociación de Alzheimer, estoy generando conciencia y recaudando fondos para avanzar en la lucha contra esta enfermedad, fondos que permiten a la Asociación de Alzheimer brindar atención y apoyo las 24 horas del día, los 7 días de la semana, mientras acelera la investigación crítica.

Las familias que enfrentan la enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras demencias nos necesitan y, con su ayuda, podemos estar ahí para ayudarlas. Haga una donación o regístrese como participante y comience sus propios esfuerzos de recaudación de fondos. Juntos podemos acabar con la enfermedad de Alzheimer.

¡Gracias por su apoyo!
