I've mentioned before and many of you know that my mom is suffering from Alzheimer's. It's a terrible disease that afflicts many of our moms, dads, aunts, and uncles. Voltil's dad suffers from it as well. Obviously, this dreadful disease took our beloved Pat Summit. It's a disease that robs the person of their mind slowly and methodically.

My Volnation family has been so generous with their thoughts, prayers and kind words to me. I can't tell you how much it means to know that my mom, myself, and my family are in your thoughts.

Tomorrow me, my family and many of my mom's friends are participating the 2016 Walk To End Alzheimer's. I am asking if you can make a donation, even if it's just a little. Every little bit counts and is appreciated. Just to be clear, my mom or our family receive none of the donation. It goes straight to the Alzheimer's association to advance research into a cure. You can donate by clicking on the link below and if you do social media, please share it!

If you can't make a donation, I understand and kindly ask that you keep my mom and family in your prayers, particularly my dad as this is really wearing on him.

Thanks and Go Vols!

This disease is particularly awful and anyone who is affected by it has my thoughts and prayers. Always.

Same here. My mother was just recently diagnosed with very early on stage set of Alzheimer's. She already has diabetes & fibro. This has really put a damper on the whole family but we are all people of faith so we will depend on Jesus to see us through it. Thanks!

My dad has it. Hard to watch someone that was so strong and so so successful be destroyed by this disease. Great cause Invol.

Love seeing the Power T here on the west coast. Was driving near the Hoover Dam and saw a car from California with a Power T on the back. Of course had them roll the window down and yelled "Go Vols!!" Got a solid Yea! with a fist pump....

We already did this...may as well have been weeks ago. Can't delay things so you can complete your hormone therapy. :)

Oh, I saw that too.

Just figured it might help things sink in if you heard it more than once. Know it gets difficult for you sometimes.


Also, FTR my second sentence was expressing an opinion.
