Recognizing through our participation in research that the
disease was genetic, and would be carried to future
generations, my family began a bike ride, the Memory Ride, to
raise funds for research. Now run by the Alzheimer’s
Association of Massachusetts, this event has increased
funding for research and awareness for the disease. Over the
past ten years two of my aunts and an uncle, all in their 50s,
