Spotlight: Michael Frank

Each week we will be picking members to spotlight to tell their Alzheimer's story and why they are running in this year's New York City marathon. Check in each  Wednesday, Friday and Sunday for new updates on who will be spotlighted and get to know your teammates...(each person is picked at random) 

I hope you all are having a wonderful summer!  As many of you know, I have been raising money the past few years for Alzheimer’s.  Last year I ran the NYC Marathon, and through my efforts raised over $10K for Alzheimer’s.  My mother has been suffering with Alzheimer’s for the past 9+ years.  In fact, I recently signed papers admitting her into hospice care.

I realize there is nothing that can be done to help my mom, but I know that if I do something, my daughters and their children might not have to go through what I am now.  Don’t let this disease continue to wreak havoc on other families!  Take a moment to look at my webpage (I Run for My Mom), and support me in my efforts to raise money for Alzheimer’s.  If you can support me by donating to this great cause, please do so through the site.  If you can’t donate (or even if you have donated), you can support me by forwarding this email to a friend/co-worker/family member.  My goal is to build awareness, and hopefully assist in some small way towards finding a cure for Alzheimer’s. 

Thanks for reading, and thank you for your support.

I don’t just run for my health, I run for my mom.
