Dear Friends and Family, Marathon Day in NYC on November 6th is fast approaching! This is my 12th year running the NYC Marathon for Alzheimer's. Research. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all the donors who have donated in the past, many who have donated each of my eleven previous years. While I am running in honor of my mom I am actually running for those who she loved or would have loved if she was not taken from us by this illness I'm running for her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. My wish is they will never need to worry about being inflicted by this illness or being a caretaker of a loved one with the illness. Recent developments have been very encouraging as ADDF (Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation) announced that Leonard A. Lauder, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, NFL Players Association (NFLPA), and leading pharma companies, including Eli Lilly and Biogen, are supporting the ADDF to launch the second phase of our Diagnostics Accelerator, now a $100 million global initiative aimed at developing new biomarkers and diagnostics – blood tests, eye scans and digital tools – for a more accurate and earlier diagnosis. The next phase will advance ADDF portfolio and focus on advancing late-stage diagnostic tools from development to commercialization.
That said please join forces with the amazing medical community to finally put this illness to rest by making a donation to the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation by clicking in the below link ! Thank you in advance for your time and attention to this important cause !
