I am desperately trying to organize a fundraiser for next year to raise awareness of alzheimer’s disease. i am sure you must know someone who is affected by this devastating disease, or know someone who has. PLEASE, PLEASE help us… my parents said they will take out a loan to pay for your expenses, if that is what it takes, but they have been out of work for 2 years , so I hope you will do it without that contingency. I know this is a long shot, but I am still gonna try. let me know if you are, in principle, open to this proposition, and if so, what is your availability? thank you SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!
