"Though those with Alzheimer's might forget us, we as a society must remember them." Scott Kirschenbaum
This is my 12th year doing this walk, so I think you know the drill by now!
If you haven't already been affected by dementia or Alzheimer's, unfortunately, you likely will be in the future. From the Alzheimer's Society of Canada:
- As of January 1, 2024, we estimate than 733,040 people in Canada are living with dementia.
- Every day, more than 350 people in Canada develop dementia. This is more than 15 every hour.
- By 2030, nearly 1 million people in Canada could live with dementia.
By supporting the Alzheimer’s society, you not only contribute to programs that help patients and caregivers, you also help fund research that can change the course of these numbers.
Donations are appreciated, words of encouragement are always welcome, and even better - send a note to someone you know caring for a dementia or Alzheimer's patient, or a front line worker.
As always, thank you for your support!
