Louise's Story
Wednesday 18th Feb Louise's story....Leigh's Story
Wednesday 18th Feb Leigh's story...Connell's Story
Wednesday 18th Feb"It reigns confusion" These were the words my mother said when her brilliant mind was failing her. My mother was originally diagnosed with MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) she could not name 10 types of cars, she was forgetful and wasn't herself. Over the next 4 years, she suffered from sever aphasia. She could not complete a sentence, could not feed herself and was living alone in a memory care facility. It was heartbreaking to see a successful, articulate, business woman decline in such a humiliating way. I am committed to helping find a cure for all dementia diseases by doing something I love - playing tennis!
This year we will continue to host Tennis, Pickleball and Mahjong - all at Charlotte Country Club on Saturday, June 6.
I'm honoring my mother, Jacqueline Holmes, who I lost twice. Leigh is honoring her father, Ben Carter.
Thank you for your support!
Connell & Leigh
