I am on the MOVE to end Alzheimer's!

Did you know that every 72 seconds, someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease?
I didn't until this devastating disease directly affected my life. The chance of Alzheimer's affecting your life is inevitable and as of right now there is no cure. I started taking the time to learn about Alzheimer's when my grandfather began to show early signs of the disease. I began doing my part by participating in the Alzheimer's Association Memory Walks® in honor of my grandfather. This year I walk in his memory.
I am determined to make a difference. By participating in the 2009 Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk®, I have committed to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer research, as well as for care and support for people already affected by the disease.
Currently more than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer's. Unless we find a way to change the course of the disease, 16 million Americans will have Alzheimer’s by 2050.
I want to do my part to fight this fatal disease – but I can’t do it without your help. Memory Walk funds help the Alzheimer's Association advance important research into better treatments and a possible cure for Alzheimer’s. And for the millions already affected by the disease, the Association offers care, education, support and resources in communities nationwide.
Please support me in celebrating my grandfather's life and in my effort to help find a cure. For more information or to make a donation to this cause please visit the link below. All support no matter how big or small comes together to make a difference.
On behalf of the millions of Americans who are living with Alzheimer’s, thank you for supporting my efforts.
