Alzheimer's Awareness Month in Montgomery County

June 11, 2019

GO PURPLE, it’s Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month

Montgomery County Goes Purple for the Month of June to Support Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness

BrightStar Care of Montgomery County Is Committed to Supporting Those Who Live, Support, Care For, and Walk Alongside Alzheimer’s and Brain Disease Patients
 
Like so many others around the country, our local employees are personally impacted by this disease; we are sisters, brothers, daughters and sons of people battling Alzheimer’s. One family client member summarized this impact perfectly when they said,

“Watching my Dad’s face when he was given the diagnosis of Early Stage Alzheimer’s was one of the hardest days of my life. From that day on, my commitment to the Alzheimer’s Association and to those helping to improving care and treatment for those living with this disease became more than a profession, it became my personal mission. Our participation in The Longest Day is for our family, and it is Senior Lifestyle’s way of uniting to support other families around the nation, so that no family is alone in their fight.”
