Imagine reading this sentence. Now imagine you have to read it again because you just forgot what it said. Now you look at this entire message Its long. Its a lot to remember. You decide youre tired and this is too complicated a task. Youll look at it later. If you remember. This is Alzheimer's disease. This incurable disease affects the over 5.3 million people. This could be your grandfather or grandmother. Your best friend. Your mom. You.
This year, to support those affected by Alzheimer's, I'm participating in the Sebagoman Olympic Triathlon & Westchester Half Ironman Triathlon to raise funds and awareness to fight this disease. -- I know I can make a difference with your support.
