Story
¡Hola a todos!
El pasado año mi abuelo Paco nos dejó tras años sufriendo Alzheimer. Fue muy duro para todos nosotros ver cómo iba perdiendo la memoria y, como esa persona que no paraba de darte besos y abrazos, poco a poco dejaba de conocernos. Era la persona más alegre, cariñosa, familiar que he conocido en mi vida y para los que le rodeábamos, ver que no nos conocía, fue uno de los momentos más difíciles de nuestras vidas. Mi abuelo, un trabajador nato que pasó muchas penurias en su juventud, no se achicaba con nada, era valiente, a todo le hacía frente, y es por ello, que he decidido tomar algo de esa valentía que nos transmitió para realizar el reto más importante de mi vida: subir el Kilimanjaro. El 8 de agosto partiré hasta Tanzania con la mochila cargada de ilusión para poder enfrentarme a estos 5.895 metros durante 8 días. Para ello os pido vuestra colaboración. Con vuestros donativos donaré a la Fundación Pasqual Maragall todo lo conseguido para que lo inviertan en sus proyectos de investigación sobre la enfermedad del Alzheimer. Absolutamente todo lo que donéis irá para esta fundación. Un futuro sin Alzheimer es posible.
Last year my grandfather Paco passed away after years suffering from Alzheimer's. It was very hard for all of us to see how he was losing his memory and, how that person who did not stop giving you kisses and hugs, little by little stopped knowing us. My grandfather, a born worker who spent many hardships in his youth, did not shrink with anything, he was brave, he faced everything, and that is why, I have decided to take some of that courage that he transmitted to us to carry out the most important challenge of my life: climb the Kilimanjaro. On August 8 I will leave for Tanzania with my backpack full of hope to face these 5,895 meters for 8 days. I will donate to the Pasqual Maragall Foundation everything that has been achieved so that they can invest it in their research projects on Alzheimer's disease.
