Today I rise to lend my support to the Miami Walk to End Alzheimer's, and I urge my fellow south Floridians to come out to Museum Park in downtown Miami this Saturday, November 7, to help advance Alzheimer's support, care, and research in our community and, indeed, across our great Nation. Alzheimer's is a growing problem in Florida, with over half a million seniors impacted. And it is not just patients who suffer. Family members and caregivers, too, often bear the brunt of this tragic and emotionally draining disease. I know this personally, having lost my mother to complications from Alzheimer's on January 28, 2011. Please consider taking a few hours out of your weekend to benefit Alzheimer's awareness and research for south Florida's elderly and the families who support and love them. ____________________
