Tesco charity of the year partnership · 28 February 2012 ·

At Alzheimer’s Society we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. We do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding groundbreaking research.

Story

<p><strong>Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and eventually fatal disease of the brain. It is the most common form of dementia. There is no cure or proven prevention...</strong></p> <p><strong>Having Alzheimer's&nbsp;strips you of everything not least of all your dignity. Unless you have witnessed first hand how cruel and uncaring this disease can be on the sufferer and their families,&nbsp;then you can never fully appreciate the&nbsp;devastating impact it can have!!...I sincerely hope you never have to!!!</strong></p> <p><strong>This is for my Grandma Joyce Davison&nbsp; and for my uncle, Michael Orme&nbsp;&nbsp;and all those suffering&nbsp;from this horrible disease&nbsp;.... and for the families and loved ones who said their silent goodbyes some time ago when alzheimers took hold and took their loved one away into a world of their own. For them, we WILL find a cure !!!</strong></p> <p><strong>Thankyou for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</strong></p> <p><strong>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
