Shop AFA's eStore: Improve Dementia Patients' Lives

The Holidays: A Fitting Time to Think of Those in Need
As the holidays approach, I would once again like to touch on the topic of just how important a vital mind and lucid thought-processing ability are to any individual's quality of life. We writers know just how critical the ability to think clearly can be to our livelihood, our relationships, and our overall satisfaction with life.
Yet, to those facing Alzheimer's, the prospect of living a fulfilling life is, to a great extent, dependent on the ability of others to understand their condition, learn how best to handle its symptoms and mitigate its negative effects, and know where to go to receive the emotional and practical support they need to be able to continually provide a loving, nurturing environment in which the Alzheimer's patient can not just survive, but thrive.
Alzheimer's Foundation of America: Improving Lives One Patient at a Time
The Alzheimer's Foundation of America is an organization that does a great deal to improve the quality of life of Alzheimer's victims and their families. The people at AFA work hard to provide information and support to all those affected by Alzheimer's--patients, caregivers, family members, and health care professionals. In addition, this non-profit organization is dedicated to finding a cure for this debilitating condition which robs so many of the ability to handle everyday activities that most of us take for granted.
Holiday Gifts that Give the Gift of Support to Alzheimer's Patients
AFA's eStore has the perfect holiday gift for that special someone. Buying your gifts online from AFA this holiday season will help you bring joy to friends and family while at the same time gifting Alzheimer's patients and their families with the critical support they need. All proceeds raised through the AFA eStore benefit the Alzheimer's Association of America and are used to help improve the lives of Alzheimer's patients.
AFA: "Together for Care...in Addition to Cure"
While finding a cure for this debilitating disorder is one very important focus of AFA's work, they also realize that care is every bit as important as cure and therefore place equal emphasis on this critical aspect of their work.
Why not visit the AFA eStore for some new gift-giving ideas; and give more than gifts to your friends and family this holiday season--give them the satisfaction of knowing that their gift helped make a difference in someone else's life.
And during this season of generosity in which the spirit of giving is so widespread, why not consider making a contribution to help support the work that AFA is doing to improve the lives of those facing Alzheimer's.
Thanks!
Jeanne
