Why I Walk
Join me in my commitment to raising awareness and funds for Alzheimer's research, care and support. You can support my efforts by making a donation or joining my team and walking with me on October 21, 2023.
More than 6 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer's. Seventy-three percent are age 75 or older. About 1 in 9 people age 65 and older (10.7%) has Alzheimer's. Alzheimer's begins 20 years or more before memory loss and other symptoms develop. The time is now to act - let's support those who are already suffering and protect ourselves, our children and future generations from this devastating disease.
Will you join me?
I started working for BrightStar Care in 2020, at the height of the pandemic. If ever there was a time to learn what quality home care entails, that was it. I have learned there is a perfect balance between maintaining independence while maintaining safety. That balance can be difficult to achieve; especially if you can’t remember which medication to take when, or you love that caregiver who you invited into your home, or your granddaughter’s name.
1 in 3 seniors passes away with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia. Proceeds from the Golden Isles Alzheimer's Walk benefit Memory Matters Glynn, a local non-profit organization offering education, social activities for persons with memory impairment, individual consultations, memory screening and support groups in Glynn County as well as research efforts through the Goizueta Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at Emory University.
I so hope you will donate to our team and join us on Walk Day to support this wonderful cause!
