Contribute your Alzheimer’s related art for a zine to raise funds for Alzheimer’s research. Katelyn at Stamping Mad is initiating this project, Giving Back – A Call for Alzheimer’s Related Art, at her blog.
I was thinking to do something a bit different [from last year]. I want to create a zine (a type of magazine) called “A Portrait of Alzheimer’s” and am looking for people to make art that fits this theme to include in the zine. Since you can just take a good, high resolution photo for me instead of sending in original art, it should be less costly for everyone to do. Of course, all net proceeds from zine sales will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Foundation at Alz.org.
Check out the link above and read all the details at Stamping Mad.
(Incidentally, the full title of the book pictured above is: When Words Have Lost Their Meaning: Alzheimer’s Patients Communicate Through Art.)

Creating a place that has up-to-date information on how to help alzheimer’s specifically with diet and nutrition would be helpful. So far my only dependable resource is a book that was highly recommended to my. APO E Gene Diet, by Pam McDonald offers clear answers on diet and food and their effects on our neurological health, more specifically related to alzheimer’s disease.
