Alzheimer's is the 6th leading cause of death in the USA.

16.1 Million American's care for a loved one, at home, with little support.

5.7 Million American's are currently living with Alzheimer's.

Once again, this year, cities and towns across Wyoming participated in the walk to find a cure for Alzheimer's. There are more participants every year. This was the largest turnout yet.

My name is Glenn Woods, I host the morning show on 650AM KGAB in Cheyenne Wyoming. I home cared my father for 6 years. This years I was privileged to be invited and asked to speak before the walk began.

If you know someone who has Alzheimer's or Dementia, or are caring for someone or know someone who is, please contact your local Alzheimer's Association for help.
