Too many of us can all share a story of a loved one inflicted with dementia. As noted in previous posts, this disease costs more than any other illness (including cancer) and impacts over 13 MILLION people (almost 4 million with dementia and over 9 million caregivers) .

A friend of the family - Lisa Wetzel - is one of the millions also affected and is trying also to raise awareness. To do so, she put together a team in memory of Grandmother and in honor of her other grandmother, aunt and step mom --- all whom have suffered or are suffering from Dementia -- to participate in the 2013 Walk to End Alzheimer's.

She has asked us to put up this post to bring awareness to about the Alzheimer's walk.

Please see the below link for more details.
