Bakhus Saba is a tireless advocate from Canada whose mother is living with Alzheimer’s. Bakhus has co-written several songs to raise awareness and help shatter the stigma associated with this horrific disease. Love is the Cure was released this week to mark World Alzheimer’s Day 2015. Thank you for all you do, Bakhus!

I met Brenda Bouchard online, like so many other advocates across the country – and the world – that I’ve had the pleasure and honor of crossing paths with. This lady is something special. Her fearless determination, poise, and grace are so inspiring.
She has directly addressed the topic of Alzheimer’s with Hillary Clinton, Marco Rubio, John Kasich, Bernie Sanders, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Rick Santorum, Rand Paul, and Donald Trump at town hall meetings in her home state of New Hampshire. And now, she has released this incredible short film.
The film is 20 minutes long, but I ask you to please take the time to watch it. Learn about her husband Ken and his incredible life, how Alzheimer’s has affected their marriage – and their entire world, and how Brenda has stepped out of her comfort zone to become a courageous advocate.
Please watch and then share with others to help further Brenda’s mission.
You can also find Brenda on Facebook on her Honoring Ken page and on Twitter at @HonoringKen.
