We encourage every citizen of Western Maryland to call or write Rep. Bartlett, Sens. Mikulski and Sarbanes and ask them to support our proposals to combat Alzheimer's disease by encouraging Congress to allocate $355 million for Alzheimer research, modernize Medicare to meet the needs to the chronically ill more appropriately and effectively, and to maintain the Medicaid safety net for families who exhaust their own savings in paying for years of expensive long term care.
To learn how you can join the fight against Alzheimer's disease, call the Western Maryland Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association at 1-301-696-0315 or 1-800-696-6830.

A lovely sign
To the editor:
I wanted to comment on the nice sign advertisement that you pass by to get on Prospect Street. "Happiness is helping others."
