Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and supporting me in my attempt at the London Marathon 2018 for Alzheimers Society- I need your support and sponsorship .
I am grateful to Alzheimers Society for giving me an opportunity to raise money for them. Alzheimers and dementia are cruel and debilitating illnesses and we have yet to find a cure.
My Mother -in-law Evie is a woman of enormous character, energy and the most sociable person I know. Fiercely independent and yet Alzheimers is cruelly punishing her, by taking away those wonderful skills of socialising, making fabulous cakes, taking care of her frail husband, chatting to her friends,
It has left Evie and all her family frustrated and confused at seeing The "Evie of old" slowly disappear. Thankfully she still retains a great sense of Irish humour that Alzheimers cannot take away.
Alzheimers impacts not only on the person but also the family, the husband or partner, the children and friends who are left to care.
Alzheimers Society do a great job of supporting families in need, as well as putting money into researching the causes of dementia as the disease becomes more common with our ageing population
PLEASE Sponsor me through JustGiving to continue the good work Alzheimers Society can do for you or a family member in the future...
