“Together for Care… in addition to Cure.”
-Alzheimer’s Foundation of America
There is a new way to support the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America. Buy your holiday gifts at their eStore. The sale proceeds benefit the Alzheimer’s Foundation but you don’t have to buy anything, you can easily make a donation to the foundation through the website’s contributution link.
Alzheimer’s disease hurts families. The Alzheimer’s Foundation website offers more than a great way to shop. Information about diagnosis, treatment, and support is available on the site. You can find local support organization information, nearby resources as well as national resource guides. The research for a cure is terrifically important but the importance of quality of care for the sufferers of this devastating disease is paramount.
The families who give personal care for the sufferers, the home health aides, the institutional workers who deal with Alzheimer’s on a daily basis need your support and compassion. The constant influx of almost daily quality of life issues wear caregivers down. Your financial support – your contributions and your purchases – ensure real-time answers for those who need them. It’s just like the foundation reminds us “No one should suffer this disease alone.” We must become a community of care.
The Internet draws us closer, makes support and compassion literally available at the touch of a button. But it takes money to do research, it takes money to provide a responsive support system, and it takes real money to offer the nurturing and fact-offering services required by those who give care to Alzheimer’s sufferers. The facts about the warning signs, about diagnosis and progression of the disease must be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week online.
The disease is progressive and degenerating. There is no cure. There is no fail-safe diagnostic test. Your financial support of the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America is fundamental because together, we can change lives.
