It is humbling and it's gratifying And I am phenomenally motivated to do my very best to raise Awareness and a million dollars for Alzheimer's research in honor of my mom my aunts the 25 million people around the world that had This disease and the millions of families that are going through it, you know in the 70 seconds It takes to listen to this video another family will begin this tragic journey of having Alzheimer's disease So this is about the fundraising the climbs or the vehicle I hope to summit help to some at all seven and but one of the things that you can do to really encourage me is to go Ahead and pledge a penny for every foot that I climb so every foot Would be a penny that you would pledge to the cure Alzheimer's fund and that would equate to about 91 dollars for Mount Vincent so go ahead and check out the links in the site and I really appreciate your support because when it's cold Mine is 40 minus 50 and I'm freezing to death I'll think about all you guys out there that are willing to support me on this and a hundred percent of your Donation goes to research nothing to me nothing to my supporters, so thanks a lot everybody Be sending the dispatches shortly.
