Alzheimer’s disease takes a huge toll on the individual with the diagnosis, but
also has a lasting effect on families. For some, giving back is a way to honor
their family member and work toward a positive change for those that will
encounter Alzheimer’s disease in the future.
There are many ways to make a difference. It can be as simple as signing up
to be an advocate and sending your local legislator a letter or giving your time
and talents to one of our events or committees. You can also help advance
research efforts by signing up for TrialMatch, anyone is eligible! Volunteers
like Marian Blevins are making a change as an advocate; for the spouses,
parents, grandparents, family members, and friends, who have gone through
the emotional journey that is accompanied by Alzheimer’s disease. Others
have already joined the fight, in hopes that they do not have to watch the
next generation experience this devastating disease. When Marian was asked
why she volunteers she said, “The Alzheimer’s Association was a place for
support and understanding, so volunteering for the Alzheimer’s Association
is very important to me now. Every time I volunteer I feel I am helping
someone else and I’m sure my husband would be very proud of me! I hope
the knowledge I have learned through his journey will continue to help others
through advocacy efforts. Everyone should consider joining the Alzheimer’s
Association, and me!”
Another volunteer, Barb Kosik, has been a committee member since the start
of our annual spring gala five years ago. Barb and the other committee members work for
months prior to the
event to help plan every
little detail and make
sure that each attendee
has a memorable
experience. Barb said,
“being able to give
back to the Alzheimer’s
Association has meant
so much to me. I lost
my mother to the
disease, like so many
others who have
watched their loved
ones’memory fade, but
I am hopeful for a cure
and by giving my time, I can be a part of that!”
Bailey Simon, a student at Bowling Green State University, chose to spend her internship
with the Northwest Ohio Chapter. Additionally, she volunteered on the gala committee.
Bailey said, “It feels good to volunteer.
Although I am not personally connected to
the disease, being a gerontology student, I
have seen the effect it can have on families
and by volunteering I hope to make a
difference for those families.”
Volunteers are a key part to the Alzheimer’s
Association success. Anyone can join one of
our committees, become an office volunteer,
or help with our programs and services.
Giving your time is one of the best ways
to help raise awareness and funds for the
Alzheimer’s Association. “Volunteering on
the Walk committee is a great way to bring
awareness to Alzheimer’s disease in your
local community while also doing something
fun and meeting new people. With ten
Walks, our annual gala, and several offices
there is something for everyone,” said Kate
Zenone, Development and Communications
Coordinator and Walk Manager. “If it weren’t
for our volunteers we would not be able to do all that we do, from our caregiver support
group leaders to the numerous committee members, office volunteers, and advocates. Each
person makes a difference for our organization and we are so thankful to have them,” said
Executive Director, Salli Bollin. To sign up to be a volunteer, call 1-800-272-3900 or visit us

TrialMatch:
Striving for a Cure
The Alzheimer’s Association created TrialMatch as a result of the
difficult time we had recruiting and retaining participants for clinical
studies. This was one of our greatest obstacles, so in order to continue
developing the next generation of Alzheimer treatments, the TrialMatch
program was officially launched. The immediate need for advances
in Alzheimer’s diagnosis, treatment, and prevention have led to an
extraordinary need for clinical study participants. By volunteering for
clinical studies, people with Alzheimer’s and their caregivers can play
a more active role in their own treatment, while also contributing to
scientific discovery and benefiting future generations. Individuals with
family history may also find an interest in the program. There are no limitations to
who is able to sign up. All clinical trials need individuals affected by the disease as
well as healthy individuals to participate. Joining the program is a public service in
the best possible sense.
TrialMatch operates online and through the Alzheimer’s Association toll-free phone
number: 1-800-272-3900. It is a “dementia friendly” service with specially
trained Helpline staff. To learn more information or to join TrialMatch today, stop
by one of our offices for a postcard or sign up online at
alz.org/trialmatch.
More than 1,100 Alzheimer’s advocates clad in
purple sashes gathered on Capitol Hill March
25 for Hill Day — the culmination of the 27th
Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum in
Washington, D.C. This year’s event was the
largest to date, with a record-breaking number
of advocates from all 50 states attending to
learn about Alzheimer’s policy, priorities, and
to visit with their elected officials.
With the December 2014 enactment of the
Alzheimer’s Accountability Act, which allows
scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to directly communicate with
Congress about the resources needed to meet the goals of the National Plan to Address
Alzheimer’s Disease, the mood among
advocates was hopeful and determined.
“I found one constant in my over five
years of attending the Public Policy
Forum in Washington D.C. and that
is passion. All of those in attendance,
no matter what their cultural or
professional backgrounds, they were
passionate about doing whatever
needed to be done to find a cure for
this devastating disease. This display of
passion was for caregivers who care for
their family member and who try to make life as meaningful as possible when living
with Alzheimer’s disease. The first forum I attended was with maybe 400 advocates.
This year there were over 1,000 attendees advocating for research dollars to find a cure
for this disease. Our voices and stories are making a difference,” according to Board
member and chapter advocate, Michael Malone. There is hope on the horizon, we just
need to have the courage to step up, speak out, and grab it. “The most exciting part
of the Forum was meeting with the Researchers, learning about the many discoveries
getting us closer to the demise of Alzheimer’s. The conversations with individuals and
families involved with those researchers, WOW! There really are positive changes
coming”, said Dan Reiff, Northwest Ohio Chapter Advocate. Bill Conlisk, another
Board member and representative from the Northwest Ohio Chapter added, “a highlight
of the Forum for me was spending time with Senator, Rob Portman, from Ohio,
explaining the clear and compelling business case behind investing in more research.
It was clear he agreed that such investments will deliver significantly lower healthcare
costs in the future.”
The movement continued as Ohioans gathered for the 17th Annual Memory Day at
the Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio on April 15th. With over 350 attendees from the 7
Ohio Alzheimer’s Association Chapters there was a sea of purple filling the atmosphere
with hope and excitement. The Northwest Ohio Chapter was represented by over 75
individuals who traveled to Columbus, Ohio to represent all of us here in northwest
Ohio.
Advocates that made the drive to Columbus gathered in the Statehouse Atrium and
were greeted by the Director of the Ohio Department of Aging, Dr. Bonnie Burman; the
Honorable Clifford Rosenberger, Speaker
of the House; and Luanne Bole-Becker,
family caregiver. All spoke on the impact
Alzheimer’s disease has had on their lives
and how we can all affect the change
that is needed to care for the growing
number of Ohioans impacted by this
disease. While meeting with legislators,
advocates shared their personal stories
and encouraged their representatives
to support the increase of Alzheimer’s
Respite Funding (Line Item 490-414).
With over fifty percent of caregivers for someone with Alzheimer’s rating their stress
level as high or very high there is a definite need for respite funding. Respite programs
enable caregivers to better cope with the daily challenges and stresses of caring for
someone with dementia. “We feel that we are really being listened to and that legislators
are more receptive to the changes that need to be made. We are so pleased with the
turnout for Memory Day and I would just like to thank all of those that attended, every
voice counts,” said Marty Williman of the Alzheimer’s Association, Northwest Ohio
Chapter. With so much excitement and hope, it is important to remember it is never too
late to sign up to be an advocate by calling 1-800-272-3900 or visit us at
alz.org/advocate.

Spring/Summer 20154
Our fifth annual spring gala, the Mardi Gras Masquerade, was held on Saturday,
April 11th at the Premier. Dave Holmes from 13abc hosted the event as emcee for
a record number of 360 guests. Guests arrived in semi-formal attire with wonderful
touches of Mardi Gras flair. The New Orleans inspired menu included a choice of a
boneless beef short rib with Cajun seasoning, blackened chicken breast with bourbon
sauce, crab cakes, or vegetarian pasta with Cajun Alfredo sauce. The delicious entrees
were accompanied by cole slaw, traditional gumbo, corn bread, red beans and rice,
and sautéed green beans. 800 mini cupcakes were donated by Cupcakes by Ashley and
included themed flavors of purple velvet, key lime, king cake cinnamon, chocolate
river, and jalapeño popper with cream cheese frosting.
Chris Magers of Mager Designs donated his time and talents to transform the room with
a gorgeous beaded backdrop for the stage, large column decorations, and Mardi Gras
lighting around the room.
The audience was wowed with entertainment by the wonderful, Ramona Collins
Quintet, magic by Dorian Grey, juggling by Crazy Craig, miming by Irene Alby, and
photography fun by TapSnap. They also watched an emotionally moving video sharing
the story of three separate families from northwest Ohio who are dealing with the
effects of Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia and who rely on the Alzheimer’s
Association’s various programs and services. Jason Failing followed the video with a
heartfelt speech.
Support was raised through raffle ticket sales, over 120 silent auction items, Mardi Gras
mystery boxes, and a special ask for support for our two Adult Day Centers.
“We are so grateful to those who attended the Mardi Gras Masquerade and generously
supported our organization. Our special events such as the gala, The Longest Day,
and our Walk to End Alzheimer’s are vitally important for us to continue offering our
programs and services to those who rely on us. This includes nearly 40,000 individuals
in Northwest Ohio who have been diagnosed as well as their families and caregivers,”
said Beth Wong, Development, Family Support, and Community Education Specialist.
The chapter would like to extend a special thank you to the sponsors, donors, and guests
who made the evening possible. Also, a special thank you goes out to the committee
members and volunteers who worked tirelessly over the past 10 months planning every
detail. We are humbly grateful for all of the support.

The Longest Loss: Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia
When the diagnosis is Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia, grief does not wait for death. Grieving can begin before
a formal diagnosis or when patients and families receive confirmation of illness. Over a span of what may be a decade or
more, multiple losses associated with dementia become a pervasive part of everyday life for millions of patients,
families, and friends. After the death, survivors’ grief may be complicated by the nature of a lengthy disease that has
changed their relationship with the deceased. Through a combination of candid, compelling video interviews and
unscripted in-studio discussions, experts will identify how medical and social service professionals can best improve
care for patients, families, and themselves while coping with loss and grief associated with these progressive illnesses.
A program by Hospice Foundation of America, co-sponsored by Hospice of Northwest Ohio, Alzheimer’s Association,
Northwest Ohio Chapter, and University of Toledo Center for Successful Aging. $15 fee will be charged by Hospice
Foundation of America for their online continuing education. Free for anyone else.

The Longest Day is a day to
honor those who often have
the longest day all throughout the year, not just on June 21st. It honors a
caregiver’s commitment and the strength of those facing a diagnosis. By
joining us in the month of June, you are giving strength to all of those
affected by this disease.
The Longest Day is an event that is made for everyone, no matter where
you are. It allows participants to pick any activity they love to do and
spend all day doing it. By joining together as a team, members can take
shifts or do something fun together for the entire day. Ask friends, family,
or co-workers to make pledges for every hour of your activity and to
support you by helping raise awareness and funds for the Alzheimer’s
Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter. To start your own team for The
Longest Day, go to alz.org/thelongestday.
Current Longest Day teams are already gearing up for this year’s events.
One of our most exciting events springs from a partnership between The
Toledo Mud Hens and It’s Yoga Toledo. Our organizations are partnering
to offer a full day of fun for the whole family (and Dad!) on Sunday, June
21st to celebrate and honor those who are facing or have faced Alzheimer’s
disease. The day will begin with a one hour session of “Yoga in
the Outfield”, taught by It’s Yoga Toledo instructors. Afterward,
guests are invited to watch batting practice and get
autographs before the Toledo Mud Hens take on the
Norfolk Tides. After the game, take your kids to run
the bases and enjoy the post-game firework show.
Malena Caruso, Director of Operations and
It’s Yoga Instructor said this about the new
partnership, “It’s Yoga Toledo is honored to be
teaming up with the Alzheimer’s Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter
and the Toledo Mud Hens for this great event, Yoga in the Outfield at one
of Toledo’s greatest venues. Not only is this yoga and baseball event going
to raise awareness for the fight, but will help encourage others to help find
an end to Alzheimer’s. It will also be an opportunity to share with our
community the true power and meaning of yoga, which is UNITY!”
This year, The Longest Day falls on Father’s Day. What a great way for
us to celebrate the commitment of father’s while honoring those who may
have lost their father to Alzheimer’s disease. Join us in honoring your
father or grandfather by choosing something they loved to be a part of for
your activity. For other ideas, check out this great list!
n Take your dad to a ball game and sit in the Alzheimer’s Association
section.
n Host a family reunion to celebrate all of the dads in your family.
n Play sports for the day and have a cookout to end the evening.
n Stop at all of your dad’s favorite places.
n For more ideas, visit our website at alz.org/thelongestday
