Join The Camino: A March Towards Hope Against Alzheimer's


Dear Friends, Family, and Compassionate Strangers,

In the tapestry of life, each thread represents a memory, a moment of joy, or a shared experience. My grandmother , a masterful creator of crochet blankets, wove countless such threads into her creations, each stitch a testament to her love, skill, and the vibrant life she led. Watching Alzheimer's unravel those threads, stealing away her ability to craft, to remember, and ultimately to connect with those she loved, was a heartbreak of unspeakable depth. This personal tragedy has become the cornerstone of our mission at Mindful Diabetes Inc ., propelling us forward in our JOIN THE CAMINO campaign.

Why We Run:

Alzheimer's disease, in its merciless progression, not only robs individuals of their memories but also of their identities. It leaves families clinging to the fragments of who their loved ones once were. Our campaignrooted in every kilometer we commit to run for every 100 new supporters —symbolizes the steps we're taking towards understanding and combating Alzheimer's, seen through the innovative lens of Type 3 Diabetes . This is a journey of hope, determination, and unwavering resolve to illuminate the darkness that surrounds this condition.

The Impact of Your Support:

Each donation breathes life into our multifaceted mission. Your generosity fuels:

  • Groundbreaking educational initiatives designed to demystify Type 2 and Type 3 Diabetes, providing clear, actionable guidance for prevention and management.
  • Research efforts aimed at dissecting the metabolic underpinnings of Alzheimer's, paving the way for novel interventions.
  • A community support network that offers solace, understanding, and resources for individuals and families navigating the complexities of Alzheimer's and diabetes.



A Story of Love, Loss, and Legacy:

My grandmother's journey with Alzheimer's, particularly her fading ability to engage in the art of crochet, symbolizes the broader narrative of loss that countless families face. Her blankets, once symbols of warmth and love, now serve as poignant reminders of what was lost to the disease.

This story isn't unique to my family; it echoes in the lives of millions who watch helplessly as their loved ones slip away. Through JOIN THE CAMINO, we aim not only to challenge the course of this disease but to preserve the essence of those we love. We're fighting for a world where memories are safeguarded, where the joy of creation lasts a lifetime, and where Alzheimer's no longer has the power to erase the rich tapestry of our lives.

How You Can Help:
This campaign is more than a fundraiser; it's a movement of hearts and minds united against a common enemy. By joining us, you're not just making a donation; you're affirming that the fight against Alzheimer's and the quest for understanding Type 3 Diabetes is a cause worth rallying around. You're helping to keep the memories and legacies of our loved ones alive, ensuring that future generations can write their stories without the shadow of Alzheimer's looming over them.

We invite you to walk this path with us. Share our story, contribute to our cause, and help us spread the word far and wide. Each step we take, each kilometer we cover, and every dollar we raise brings us closer to a future where Alzheimer's is a foe conquered, not feared.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, your empathy, and your commitment to making a difference. Together, with each step on the Camino and every contribution to this campaign, we march towards hope, healing, and a brighter tomorrow.
