Welcome to my Participant Page! Denise Blake
I’m participating in the IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s in Whitby on Saturday, May 25th to help raise money for the Alzheimer Society of Durham Region.
There are nearly 12,000 people living with dementia in Durham Region, many of whom turn to the Alzheimer Society for support. Funds raised from the Walk will help provide counselling, support groups, education and social recreation programs for all those impacted by dementia in our community.
Unfortunately, most of us are familiar with watching loved ones who have battled this disease. As we age along with the rest of the population, there is going to be a tsunami of cases of Alzheimer's. Only research can help us, our children and our grandchildren. If you would like to donate to this cause, follow the link attached. You can also help raise money by walking with me, or in a walk in your area.
My mum died with Alzheimer's, it was a long, slow decline, her last 3 years, she didn't recognize me or any of the family, and was trapped in her own mind. I am hoping research will help prevent/support others who are or will be diagnosed with this disease. I know many of you have family members who are in the process of dealing with this. Supporting this cause is my way of doing something positive.
I am walking in memory of my mum. Will I develop Alzheimer's? Will my new granddaughter? Who will you support?
