My personal story.... 3 of 4 grandparents had Alzheimer's and it's tough watching those you love deteriorate over time. They forget who you are, how to take care of themselves and it's not fun to see. Thousands like my grandparents are dealing with Alzheimer's and dementia and through your support we can fund research and awareness so people can better understand what Alzheimer's is and how we can help our loved ones.
One granddad died at 78, my other granddad at 79 and my grandma at 88. Alzheimer's doesn't know an age or gender, it can be something that takes a while to affect people or it can be faster acting. My aunt is also dealing with dementia. It's up to us to spread the word and help those who are affected.
