Story

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for looking at my page! It means alot. Dementia is really tough for both the person suffering and the family and friends caring. There is no current treatment to cure Dementia. fhe Alzheimers soceity is here to help the patient and the carers From Alzheimer's Café's and innovative 'singing for the brain' sessions to memory-book projects and group outings, their services provide both practical support and an essential point of human contact. 

On a cheerier note..(well not for me).. I have been training, albeit slowly, and I am ready to run. I have now damaged both my knees, hip and my mind running miles up and down newcastle. I even ran at home in Scotland (a wee running holiday). I must thank my friends, Ali, Jenny, Mel and Ems who have ran along beside me. Also if you feel the great north run just isn't enough of a challenge.. I am doing the Great Scottish Swim a week after. I am glutton for punishment!

Lots of Love

a very sore legged Sam
