Please Support Alzheimer's Awareness

Alzheimer's Awareness
http://www.alz.org/


Alzheimer's runs in many families including mine on both my Mother and Father's side of the family. My Great Grandmother Mintie Davis suffered from this very real disease. My Mother "Alice Parker" took care of our Grandma in the late 1960's and early 1970's.

In our neighborhood growing up in Madison County, Al. aka. Riverton, there were four families all in all nine girls and two boys and MawMaw Bogue. There were four Mother's and they all helped raise us and MawMaw Bogue would keep us in line also. These ladies were some of the strongest ladies I've ever known. We have lost my Mother "Alice Parker" 20 years ago this past July 31.2009 of Heart Failure at the tender age of 44. We lost Dorothy & Lisa's Mom "Jimmie Ann Wilbourn" to Cancer at a very young age. We Lost MawMaw Bogue to Cancer, Grandma to Sherry,Ronnie,Sandra & Brenda and Wanda Wilbourn's Mother.

Wanda Wilbourn is Sherry,Ronnie,Sandra and Brenda's Mother, she is always been like a second Mother to me and anybody that needed a hand or needed their spirits lifted if they were having a sad day. I admire Wanda so much because I've watched her my whole life make goals and succeed in every career choice she ever made besides watching her raise her four children and having a hand in raising the rest of us. A Strong mind and still pretty sharp on her good days.

Wanda has Alzheimer's and has suffered from it for several years now and I'm asking anyone who's listening to keep her and My BFF's in your prayers and please contribute to bringing awareness and supporting the cause and the Cancer and Heart Foundation.
