I am walking for the people I love - and the people que usted love, too. I'm walking for my Mom and uncles. Uncle Ray had Younger Onset back in the 80's, when that was rarely heard of. It was confusing and frightening, and I hoped beyond hope my Mom would never have to go through the same thing. Mom was "fortunate" enough not to develop Alzheimer's symptoms until she was in her 70's. She just left us October 2017. I wish I could have done something to make my parents' last years together less heartbreaking, and my Mom's last years just plain better. I am walking to end this kind of family legacy, and to preserve the happy family memories we all love to share.

I am walking for my friend and her family, to honor their devastating loss of a beloved Father and Husband, too soon, too painful.

So many of my friends have similar stories, I just want an end to the heartache. An end to Alzheimer's Se necesita con urgencia.

I want for all of us to remember all of the times we raise a pint and say Cheers! together. I want a toast someday to "no more Alzheimer!"

Now is the time, an END to Alzheimer's no puedo esperar.

Actualmente, más de 5 millones de estadounidenses han Alzheimer's y se espera que ese número aumente hasta los 16 millones para el 2050. Nuestro futuro está en riesgo a menos que podamos encontrar una manera de cambiar el curso de esta enfermedad.
¡Necesito su apoyo para hacer mi parte! Haga una donación para ayudar al Alzheimer's Association Avanzar en la investigación sobre prevención, tratamientos y cura para Alzheimer's. Para los millones que ya están afectados por la enfermedad, la Asociación ofrece atención, educación, apoyo y recursos en comunidades de todo el país.

¡Gracias por unirse a nuestro movimiento! El fin de Alzheimer's disease starts here. Cheers!
