3-girls-at-walkAlzheimer’s disease is the largest underfunded, public-health threat facing our nation today, and it’s only growing. Today, more than half of all Americans know someone with Alzheimer’s. Soon, no one will be left untouched. Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States, and the only cause of death among the top 10 that cannot be prevented, cured or even stopped.

Please join the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s in your area. In northwest Indiana, there are two Walk to End Alzheimer’s events. In Merrillville, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s will be held on Sunday, 9/22/13 at Hidden Lake Park, 6355 Broadway in Merrillville. In Michigan City, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s will be held on Sunday, 10/6/13 at Washington Park, Six on the Lake in Michigan City.
