Alzheimer's Blogging:

May I share with you a new letter I received from Alzheimer's Association:

Dear Marie,

Four days from now, advocates from across the country will descend on Washington, D.C. for the 2011 Alzheimer's Association 2011 Advocacy Forum. They come with a single purpose: to tell Congress to make Alzheimer's disease a national priority. On Sunday night, they'll gather in the shadow of the Capitol to show their support of the fight against Alzheimer's at the Candlelight Tribute Rally.

Help to amplify their voice by participating in the rally from home. Light a candle at the Alzheimer's Association Virtual Candlelight Rally to tell your story and take action against this devastating disease that affects millions of Americans. When you light a candle, you can post a message to honor or remember an individual and help spread awareness about Alzheimer's disease.

Our advocates will gather to let our nation know that time is of the essence; that we cannot wait; that we must do all we can right now to change the course of Alzheimer's. And you can join them by being a virtual participant in the rally.

We'll be in touch after the Forum with additional updates, information and ways you can take action in the fight against Alzheimer's.

Sincerely,

Robert Egge
Vice President
Public Policy Division

You can share your story and be a virtual participant in this rally.
Sincerely,
Marie Fostino
