Audio Dispatch

This is the latest audio dispatch live from South America's Aconcagua; the second of Alan's 7 Summits climbs.

These climbs are to raise Alzheimer's awareness and $1M for research. Please donate today to the Cure Alzheimer's Fund at http://www.curealzfund.org/ where 100% of your donation goes to Alzheimer's research.

Climb On!
Alan
Memories are Everything


Research funding for Alzheimer’s is less than 0.3 percent of medical care cost for the disease. For cancer, it’s 3 percent; for HIV/AIDS, it is 20 percent (source: UsAgainstAlzheimer's)
Alzheimer's disease is the only cause of death among the top 10 in the United States that cannot be prevented, cured or even slowed
