Finding a cure for Alzheimer's disease

On July 20, 2016 my wife Pam Montana was diagnosed with Younger Onset Alzheimer’s. Pam had been having memory and other issues for quite some time, and we have been doing our best to shield it from our friends and co-workers in order to protect her privacy and because we were unsure of the cause. Now that we have an official diagnosis we pledge to be part of finding gthe cure.

Here's how you can help

1. Become educated about Alzheimer's disease. It's the most costly disease in America impacting over 5 million Americans and 65% are women.

2. Sign up to join a Walk to End Alzheimer's and contribute to fund more research.
