Happy September to all of our Bickford Families and Friends! This month is a very special month as we continue our walk to end Alzheimer's Disease. Although the world might look a little different right now, one thing hasn't changed: our commitment to ending Alzheimer's. This years walk will be different. This years walk will be everywhere- on every sidewalk, track, and trail. Because there will not be a large in-person walk, our Bickford Cedar Falls team encourages you all to walk in small groups with friends and family on Saturday, September 26th. If you would like to donate to our Bickford Cedar Falls team please contact our LEC Courtney, or follow the link below. Walk with us, to help get closer to a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Bickford Cedar Falls Team link: http://act.alz.org/site/TR?fr_id=13394&pg=team&team_id=647993

"Every day might not be good, but there is good in every day". This quote couldn't ring more true than it has the last 2 weeks in Eastern Iowa. The storm that rolled through Iowa on Monday, August 10, called a Derecho, is still wreaking havoc on not only our branches, but businesses, farm land, schools, and utilities. Today marks 2 weeks that our Marion location is still without internet and phone service. Thankfully we did receive a generator that ran our branch for over a week, and we had very little other disruption. The amount of love, support, and dedication from our caregivers and families really was second to none. As these folks dealt not only with their own destruction at home, they showed up day after day, caring for our residents, keeping them safe, and providing extra help. Even a caregiver from our Iowa city location, Henry Ramirez-Mesa, spent 2 days in Marion working on clean up, cutting up branches, picking up shingles and siding, helping where he was needed, and did it all with a smile. So even though those first few days weren't all that good, we saw the good in others and are ever so thankful.
