September is World Alzheimer's Awareness Month!

September is World Alzheimer's Awareness Month!  Do something different today to exercise your brain by using the opposite hand to operate your computer mouse, brush your teeth, dial the phone, to eat, or use the remote. Your brain is learning a new skill so it may feel uncomfortable at first!


August has passed and it was a extremely busy month for us, we started giving back to the Alzheimer's Association a bit more by setting-up a information/walk to end Alzheimer's table at Angel Stadium and so far we have had great results with people getting information they needed and many have signed up for the upcoming walks.

September will be very busy for us with Zumbathons-for-a-Cure to end Alzheimer's coming up on 9/9 from 10am - 12 noon at Shake it up Club at 440 River Run Road, Corona and on 9/16 from 2:00 to 4:00pm at Continentals Clubhouse at 19801 Brookhurst, Huntington Beach, the cost is $15 in advance and $20 at the door, you can email me at gigiam77@yahoo.com or my sister-in-law Zumba Instructor Frances Moran at francessantillan@msn.com.

We continue to take it one day at a time with my Mom's disease and taking deep breaths as the disease progresses.
