I'm running the Falmouth Road to END ALZ!
This cause is very near and dear to my heart. Alzheimer's and other brain degenerative diseases have impacted both myself and my family throughout my life. My mother and grandmother suffered from different varieties of Dementia for many years. My grandma passed from Alzheimers in 2018 and my mom passed from Frontotemporal Dementia in 2009. The impact these horrific diseases can have on a person and their families is extremely difficult to cope with. That's why I am very proud to run the Falmouth Road Race this year in support of the Alzheimer's Association!
The Alzheimer's Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support and research. More than 6 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer's. By 2050, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million. About 1 in 9 people age 65 and older (10.7%) has Alzheimer's and almost two-thirds of Americans with Alzheimer's are women.
Any impact I can make to better support research and care for families who are impacted by the disease means so much to me. Looking forward to running the 51st Falmouth Road Race to support this amazing cause! If you feel inclined, please donate- any amount can help.
Thank you everyone!
Jill :)
