Welcome to Meghie's Participant Page
Thank you for supporting my journey to fight Alzheimer’s disease.
This year I have committed to participating in the Walk for Alzheimer’s because I have seen how this disease has affected my grandma. My grandma Helen passed away last year at 96 years old. She was able to live independently up until about 90 years old but her condition suddenly declined and she moved in with my parents. This disease takes over not only the person who has the disease's life, but also the life of their family. The Alzheimer Society provides support to the people with Alzheimer's disease and their families.
By making a donation to me, you are helping the Alzheimer Society to continue its important work towards a world without Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
I am pledging to walk 10,000 steps per day every day in May. I am also walking in both the Petrolia and the Sarnia walks. Every day, I am taking more than one step for every person in Sarnia-Lambton affected by Alzheimers or other dementias. For every one person diagnosed, minimally two other people are affected.
Thank you again for your kind and generous support. Please join me this May and we can walk together, even if we're apart.
