There are 5.4 million people who have Alzheimer's. It cost 183 billion dollars in annual costs. Alz's is the 6th leading cause of death.
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
WE LOVE HIM BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED US
1 John 4: 9-10

Walk To End Alzheimer's!!!

It's that time of the year again. Well it will be Sept 10. But we are starting early in hopes of raiseing LOTS of money. I think our Team Hudson did good last year. But we are going for more this year.
Walking To End  Alzheimer's!!! And the walks are so much fun. I had never done one before last years Alzheimer's walk. The walk in our town was at the baseball field. We just walked around it a few times and that was it. There were booths with lots of freebies. And food. I do love to eat. Everything was free. And so much info. , music , games. The raffles had really nice stuff in them. I encourage everyone to walk. And if you can donate to mine or your local walk. It is well worth it. And I pray someday in our lifetime there will be a cure for this awful disease.  I added a bottom to my blog for easy access to my walker page. Thanks Everyone and Please take a walk to end Alzheimer's.

    Thank you Dolores! Even if you can't walk you should just go spend the morning at the walk in your area if you can . There is so much to do . And lots of tables and booths set up. Ours had live music and door prizes. And lots of free food. It was a fun day.

    Hello Karen! --- LOL :)

    Are you kidding? Simply use a translator to read my post, have on the left Google Translate. On the website of AMA NGOs have the option to English.

    This initiative "Wlak To End" appears to be excellent for spreading the conscientization on Alzheimer's. I wish success.

    Peace

    Hello Karen, thanks for visiting my blog. Hope you will be able to read the little 'stories' with a little help of google translate ... sometimes the translations make just no sense at all ;-) I've added your blog to my list of Alzheimer blogs. I'll visit your blog regularly. Gr, Inge
