Valentine’s Gift
For Cris Suesz, the loss of her father, Charles McQueen, to Alzheimer’s disease four
years ago prompted the idea of putting together a Valentine’s Day dance benefit.
“We wanted to do something to remember him and to do something to help in the
fight against Alzheimer’s. What better time
than to do something around Valentine’s Day,”
said Mrs. Suesz, who along with her husband,
Joe, and family members and friends, have
organized the dinner and party in Boone
County for the past three years, raising more
than $15,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association
of Greater Cincinnati.
This year’s “Cherish the Memories” dance
at the Briarwood Banquet Hall in Hebron,
Ky. on Feb. 14 was the biggest yet, attracting
a capacity crowd of 270 guests. The event

s I write this column, it
strikes me that the difficult
and uncertain economic
times facing our community and
nation mirrors our families’
situations when confronted with a
diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or
other dementing illnesses.
Families, on a daily basis, face
many unknowns, much uncertainty
and many uncontrollable
circumstances. Yet we know that
with preparation and support from the Alzheimer’s Association
and respite services, family members can begin
to deal with this prolonged disease and caregiving experience
with a degree of toughness and resolve. For the most
part caregivers do not falter when faced with challenging
circumstances. It is that toughness in families that I as the
executive director have come to admire. Thus it is in this
spirit that I write this note of reassurance to you our readers,
donors, and users of services. Know that our Chapter
is also prepared to deal with present and future financial
challenges and to do so with a toughness and resolve that

defines who we are as an organization and the people we
serve.
Interestingly, we see a phenomenon emerging.
Despite these difficult and turbulent times, we observe
that donors have not abandoned us. They continue their
generous giving, and in doing so, ensure continuation of
necessary free family educational and supportive services
without interruption to programming. Our board
members take their responsibilities seriously. They support
the Chapter in all ways using their time and talent to
diligently and prudently monitor and provide oversight of
our financial situation and operational decisions.
On a regular basis, Chapter staff reviews practices
across all functional areas so that we can be more efficient
and productive. We too, are attempting to do more with
less (like our families) but our goal always is to continue
to provide a high level of service and support in all areas,
without skipping a beat (like our families). So friends,
generous and committed leadership volunteers and
donors, be reassured that we are a determined group and
as always will continue to work hard and smart on your
behalf.
Once again we thank you for your unwavering and
constant support during some very difficult times. We are
deeply grateful.

Programs and
partnership is in the making between Alzheimer’s
Association chapters serving the state of Ohio and
the Ohio Attorney General. The goal of this collaboration
is to create a statewide training for law
enforcement officers with a focus on Alzheimer’s and dementia.
This training will help law enforcement officers to recognize
individuals who have cognitive impairment and to
interact effectively with them in emergency situations. Individuals
with dementia could become involved in many
dangerous situations such as traffic accidents, wandering
incidents, financial exploitation scams and public disturbances
where the person’s behavior may be misinterpreted
as threatening to others. Knowing the proper response can
make these situations easier for police and less upsetting for individuals with cognitive
impairment. The training will include information about the MedicAlert® +
Safe Return® program, a nationwide system for identifying persons with dementia
who are at risk of becoming lost or having a medical emergency.
The Ohio Attorney General’s office will also provide information about the
Ohio Missing Adult Alert, which has been in operation since June, 2008 and has
helped locate several missing persons with dementia. This alert system, also known
as the “Silver Alert,” is used in the same way an Amber Alert works for a missing

Caregiver News
Collaborative Spirit Fuels Education Efforts
lacing a family member with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia in a longterm
care facility is one of the most difficult decisions a family will face.
The timing of that decision is based on many factors; most are unique to
the individual with the diagnosis and the family’s particular concerns.
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, degenerative illness that requires additional
caregiving on the part of the family as the disease moves into middle to late
stages. The most common challenges that cause families to decide on placement
include:
• increased care needs (incontinence, decreased mobility, nutrition problems)
• safety issues (wandering, household hazards, combativeness) and
• health concerns of the primary caregiver.
Families may be forced to make a sudden placement decision when a drastic
change in health or care needs occurs in either the person with dementia or the
primary caregiver.
It is helpful to discuss long-term care plans before the need arises. It can also
be helpful to involve as many family members as possible to gather support and
to help plan for a smooth transition for the person with dementia. Sometimes,
a person in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease may recognize their need for
more assistance and be able to work with the family to make the decision. However,
most individuals with memory loss do not initiate a move from their home
and may be resistant to the idea.
When placement can be planned, there is opportunity to ease the transition
for the individual with memory loss, as well as the family. A few points to
consider:
• Decide WHERE your family member would be best placed.
There is no single, perfect care facility, but there can be a care facility that is best
suited to meet your family’s particular needs. Take the time to visit many types of
facilities to compare services. Ask questions, observe interactions and get feedback
from others. Narrow down your choices to 2 or 3 places and visit again. Keep in
mind that caregiving does not end with placement—you will play an important
role in helping the facility learn about your family member as the adjustment
process occurs.
• Decide WHO should tell your family member about the move.
Identify the best person to tell your family member about the move to a new
place. It may be another family member, a friend or doctor they know and respect.
For some individuals, this discussion is more comfortable when more than
child. Alerts are posted on Artemis boards on highways and fax alerts are sent to
police departments and other agencies, including the Alzheimer’s Association, to
assist in search and rescue efforts.
The law enforcement trainings will be conducted at regional locations in June
of this year.
The Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati has also partnered with the
Southwestern Ohio Caregiver Coalition to provide a two-day conference for family
and professional caregivers in October.
The Caregiver Coalition consists of many community agencies including the
Council on Aging of Southwestern Ohio, Catholic Charities Southwestern Ohio,
Jewish Family Services, Hospice of Cincinnati and other service providers in the tristate
area. These organizations have joined together to raise awareness of caregiving
concerns and to coordinate information and resources that families need in caring
for those who are ill or incapacitated.
Several of the Coalition organizations usually offer their own annual education
programs, but this year we are joining efforts to offer one large conference to the entire
tri-state area. The conference will be held at the Manor House in Mason, Ohio
on Wednesday, Oct. 14 and Thursday, Oct. 15 and consists of many informative
workshops, keynote speakers and community resource exhibits. More details will
follow in a later issue of Cornerstone. This conference will replace the Alzheimer’s
Association annual Symposium in 2009.
Difficult Transitions: Long-Term Care Placement
one person is delivering the message. For others, a one-on-one conversation is
most helpful.
• Decide WHEN to tell your family member about the move.
Think about times in the past when you talked about an event ahead of time.
Did it help prepare your family member for the event or did it cause unnecessary
anxiety? Some families choose to tell their family member about the move only
a few hours before to avoid repetitive questions and prolonged anxiety. Others
may tell the person a few weeks or days ahead and allow their family member to
participate, at some level, in planning and preparing for the move.
• Decide WHAT to tell your family member about the move.
A short, simple and consistent explanation is usually best for an individual with
memory loss. Too many details can be confusing for your family member. Using
the same words in every answer may be comforting and help your family member
grasp the information being shared. Make sure that everyone involved in the
move gives the same response each time and understands the importance of being
consistent to avoid further confusion. Also, acknowledge your family member’s
feelings of anger or loss over the move and offer reassurance.
For discussion about long-term care planning, please call the Alzheimer’s Association
at (513) 721-4284 or 1-800-272-3900. Our staff can provide information,
referrals, literature about choosing a care facility and other resources to help
in the selection process.

Plan Ahead For Safety During Summer Months
ummer is a time of traveling and outdoor events that can bring enjoyment to
families, but can also bring anxiety and fear if your loved one with Alzheimer’s
disease or dementia becomes lost. When a memory-impaired individual is missing,
a quick response is critical in locating, identifying and returning the person
safely. The MedicAlert® + Alzheimer’s Association Safe Return® program can help!
MedicAlert + Safe Return is a 24-hour nationwide emergency response service to
assist individuals with dementia who become lost or have a medical emergency. The
program provides a stainless steel identification bracelet or necklace, wallet card and
other materials. These identification products include:
• a 24-hour emergency response phone number
• the term “memory impaired” and other critical medical condition or allergy
• an identification number specific to the individual
When someone in the community discovers a missing person and calls the emergency
number, the MedicAlert operator accesses a database and immediately notifies
the primary contact person that the individual has been found. The system also allows
a caregiver to report an individual missing, which initiates a fax alert system to local law
enforcement and the local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.
There is an initial fee of $49.95 to enroll in MedicAlert + Safe Return and an annual
fee of $25.
If your family member is already registered in the MedicAlert + Safe Return
program and you plan to travel this summer, please call the registration line at 1-888-
572-8566 to inform them of where you can be reached. Contact names and phone
numbers can be temporarily changed so that you can be reached immediately in case
of a wandering incident while you are traveling.
For more information about MedicAlert + Safe Return and safety issues for
people with Alzheimer’s, please call our Helpline at (513) 721-4284 or 1-800-272-
3900 or visit our website at www.alz.org/cincinnati.
Some Facts about Wandering Behavior and Alzheimer’s Disease:
• Wandering is aimless or purposeful movement that can cause a person with
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) to become lost, leave a safe environment or intrude
in inappropriate places.
• Approximately 60% of people with AD will wander or become lost at some
point during the course of the disease.
• People with AD not only wander by foot, but also by car or other modes of
transportation.
• People with AD are usually found within a half-mile radius from where they
disappeared.
• 46% of people with AD may die if not found within 24 hours.
• People with AD do not usually cry out for help.
• People with AD do not usually respond to shouts.
• People with AD may be in search of something from their past, i.e., a former
workplace or a childhood home.

Ginkgo Biloba Does Not
Prevent Alzheimer’s Disease
Ginkgo biloba has no impact on the development of Alzheimer’s and
dementia, according to study results published in the November issue of the
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
Ginkgo was tested because it was thought to have antioxidant and other
properties that might preserve memory. The Chinese have used the leaves of
the ginkgo tree for thousands of years to treat diseases of the heart and lungs
and to “benefit the brain.” Today ginkgo biloba is one of the most extensively
researched herbs in the world and is commonly prescribed by doctors in
Europe.
The Ginkgo Evaluation of Memory (GEM) Study was a large multicenter
trial led by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
The study was conducted at five leading medical centers between 2000 and
2008. The goal of the study was to find out if medicine made from the plant
ginkgo biloba could prevent or delay changes in memory, thinking, and
personality as people got older. It was the first study designed to have the
necessary participant numbers and monitoring years to be able to measure
ginkgo’s effectiveness and safety profile in Alzheimer’s and dementia prevention.
More than 3,000 people age 75 or older who had either no dementia or mild
cognitive impairment were randomly assigned to take twice-daily doses of either
120 milligrams of ginkgo biloba extract or a placebo.
The researchers found no statistical difference in dementia or Alzheimer’s
rates between the groups. Among those taking ginkgo, 277 developed dementia.
Among those in the placebo group, 246 developed dementia. Mortality rates
were also similar. According to the researchers, it is possible that an effect would
have been observed if the study had gone on longer because it takes many years
to progress from initial brain changes to clinical dementia. As such, the research
team intends to conduct a follow-up analysis of brain function and structure
in a subset of the participants using magnetic resonance scanning and in some
cases positron emission tomography (PET) scans.
The trial was funded by the National Center for Complementary and
Alternative Medicine and the National Institute on Aging, with support from
the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. A similarly-sized trial assessing
the effectiveness of ginkgo is under way in Europe.
The Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati is fortunate to have hundreds of generous
volunteers serving in various capacities throughout the year. Although we cannot possibly spotlight
every volunteer in Cornerstone, we appreciate their valuable support and service. In this
issue, we feature Jamie Williams.

and working with seniors started at an
early age.
While growing up in Scioto County as one
of eight children, she and her twin sister would volunteer
from time to time with their mother at a senior
retirement center - her father’s place of employment.
By the time she was in high school, Jamie was
volunteering each summer at the center.
“I think my parents (James and Wilma Rockwell)
were a strong influence on how I developed an
interest in working with seniors,” said Ms. Williams,

A graduate of Shawnee State University with a degree in Social Science, Ms. Williams

Adult Day Center began offering respite service for families attending the Association’s
local Family Support Group meetings.
A few years later, when Portsmouth hosted its first Alzheimer’s Memory Walk, she
was one of the workers who volunteered to work on a Saturday to provide day care for
affected individuals so that interested family members could participate in the walk. Two
Research News
Vitamin B Does Not Slow
Cognitive Decline
I
n a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association
(JAMA) last October, researchers from the Alzheimer’s Disease Cooperative
Study conducted a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical
trial to determine if reduction of homocysteine levels with high-dose folic acid,
vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 supplementation for 18 months would slow the
rate of cognitive decline in individuals with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s.
Many studies suggest that elevated homocysteine is characteristic of
Alzheimer’s disease, and laboratory research has associated homocysteine with
Alzheimer’s plaques and tangles, though exactly how they are connected in not
yet clear. Elevated homocysteine is also associated with vascular disease and
stroke.
In this study, a total of 340 participants (202 in the active treatment
group and 138 in the placebo group) completed the trial while taking study
medication. Although the vitamin supplement regimen was effective in
reducing homocysteine levels, it had no beneficial effect on the primary
cognitive measure, rate
of change in ADAS-cog
score during 18 months,
or on any secondary
measures.
The researchers
found that high-dose B
vitamin supplementation
in people with mild-tomoderate
Alzheimer’s
who had normal levels
of B vitamins was effective in reducing homocysteine levels. However, the
intervention did not slow cognitive decline. The study does not support the
treatment of people with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s and normal vitamin
levels with B vitamin supplements.

Volunteer Life More Than A Childhood Memory
years later, she helped organize the USSA Adult Day Center team and eventually became
a member of the Portsmouth Memory Walk planning committee. Last year, her team
raised more than $4,500, earning the honor of top fundraising team.
“It is such a joy to have Jamie on the planning committee,” said Special Events Coordinator
Marcy Hawkins. “For the past few years Jamie has even opened up the Adult
Day Center as a local Memory Walk headquarters. She has been a huge help to us.”
Ms. Williams said the growth in the walk has been a community effort.
“Even though this is a rural area and the economy has been difficult the past couple
of years, we have improved our fundraising each year,” she said. “I think as more people
have become aware of the Family Support Group, the Memories in the Making© program
and the services offered by the Alzheimer’s Association in Portsmouth, the more
support has grown. People really see how it is benefitting our families locally.”
As a leadership volunteer, Ms. Williams helps secure event sponsorships, assists in
team recruitment and anything else that is asked of her, according to Ms. Hawkins.
“Jamie shows great dedication and passion for our mission,” she said.
Jamie and her husband, Aaron, reside in Portsmouth. For his part, Mr. Williams has

Make a Positive Impact
Are We on Your List?
any people would like to help strengthen the long-term viability of the
Alzheimer’s Association but feel they cannot afford to make such a gift today.
A bequest by will or revocable trust can be tailored to complement
your personal lifestyle and financial goals and also support the Alzheimer’s Association
of Greater Cincinnati. If you have not already done so, please consider putting the
Alzheimer’s Association in your will or revocable trust.
By making a bequest to the Alzheimer’s Association you can actually preserve more
of your estate for the benefit of your loved ones while helping other families by investing
in the Chapter’s future programs and services. A bequest is simple to create, if you
already have a will or trust it is easy to add a codicil that names the Alzheimer’s Association
of Greater Cincinnati as a beneficiary.
Will my gift be deductible? A charitable bequest or trust distribution is deductible
for federal estate tax purposes, and there is no limit on the deduction your estate
can claim. In addition, the gift is usually exempt from state inheritance taxes.
What if I’ve already written my will or trust? You can amend a will or trust
to make a gift without rewriting the entire document. Your attorney can prepare the
simple statement, called a codicil that adds a new bequest to us while reaffirming the
other terms of your will. Similarly, he or she can prepare an amendment to your revocable
trust to add us as a beneficiary.
Codicil for a Will or Trust
“I give, devise, and bequeath to the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati, 644
Linn Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45203 the sum of $_________ (or ___% of estate) to
carry out the mission as directed by the Greater Cincinnati Chapter Board of Directors.”
What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
• A will is your instruction manual to your survivors about how you want your
property distributed. It’s a revocable, private document that only takes effect
after your death.
• A revocable trust (sometimes called a living trust) is a legal entity that holds
assets during your lifetime, then transfers ownership of them — or benefit
from them — upon your death. Unlike a will, a trust must take title to
assets before it can pass them to your survivors.
There is no difference between wills and revocable trusts in how transfers from
them are taxed. In some states, however, the probate and distribution process is simpler
with a revocable trust. Your financial advisors can guide you in choosing which vehicle
will work better for you.

on May 15-16. Wearing the traditional green gardening aprons, volunteers will be
passing out packets of Forget-Me-Not flower seeds and collecting donations at various
locations across the Tri-state. Money raised through this campaign directly benefits the
Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati.
Last year, Bankers Life and Casualty Company raised more than $6,000.

Flying Pig Marathon Team Wanted
Are you looking for a way to further engage in our
mission and get physically fit? Join the Alzheimer’s
Association’s Flying Pig Team and start training and
fundraising today. Participants can prepare for the big
day by receiving tips from a running coach and participating
in training sessions prior to the event. Contact
Marcy at (513) 721-4284 or marcy.hawkins@alz.org
with any questions.
Money raised through participant pledges will benefit
local programs and services provided by the Alzheimer’s
Association of Greater Cincinnati as well as funding
Alzheimer research.
Deciding how to share the abundance in your
life, whether it is gifts of volunteer time or financial
resources can be a challenging process. With that in
mind, ask yourself - do you feel connected to the
Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cincinnati? Are
we helping you, your family members, friends or coworkers
navigate life’s journey with Alzheimer’s disease?
I hope the answer is yes, if you or someone
important to you is affected by Alzheimer’s disease,
you do indeed feel connected to our organization and
our mission to provide and enhance care and support
for all affected.
And if you do feel a connection or affinity with
our mission, are we on your abundance short list?
As you plan how to allocate your financial resources,
time, energy and talent, does the Alzheimer’s Associa-
tion of Greater Cincinnati rank high enough on your list to make the cut? For the
sake of our mission, I hope that the answer to this question is yes as well. Because
it is by nurturing our shared values of assisting individuals affected by Alzheimer’s
disease that together, donors, volunteers and staff can have real impact in our community.
You are not alone, we are not alone. Working together we can continue to assist
the thousands of families and individuals affected by Alzheimer’s disease living
in our community.
So, please keep us on your abundance short list. And if your gifts need to be
smaller at this moment in time than they have been in the past or will be in the
future, that’s okay. Just keep us on that short list and do what you can. Working
together we can MOVE our mission forward.

ou certainly don’t have to be a political analyst to
know what has been uppermost in the minds of
most Americans over the past year.
Actually, pervasive concerns over the economy date
back to the summer of 2007 when oil prices began to spike
and grumblings over an unsustainable housing market grew
in earnest. At the same time, an increasing number of states
began experiencing a measurable drop in tax revenue and the
need to dip into reserve funds to balance their annual operating
budgets.
But even the most pessimistic economists at the time could
not predict the depth of the current crisis.
Over the past six months, we have been bombarded with a
litany of bad economic news – a faltering credit and bank
system; plunging stock prices, rising unemployment, foreclosures and bankruptcies.
Just as troubling has been the loss of retirement savings through the diminished value
of investment accounts and pensions for many Americans, especially for those near or
in retirement.
Whether it be Washington, D.C., Columbus or Frankfort, the state of the
economy is clearly affecting every decision being made by our legislators.
So in this current climate, some may ask if the message of the Alzheimer’s Association
is doomed to be relegated to a political “back seat” when it comes to legislative
priorities. The answer to that question may well depend on the effectiveness and level
of commitment of the Association and our advocates in conveying our message to
Congress and state legislators.
Despite the poor economy, there are a number of encouraging signs that Alzheimer’s
disease remains a top health care priority for our lawmakers. They include:
• For the first time in nearly seven years, federal funding of Alzheimer research
is expected to be increased.
• A growing number of states, including Kentucky, have adopted formal
Alzheimer’s State Plans to help address the current and future challenges that
Alzheimer’s disease poses to state health care systems and the population at
large.
• In Ohio, the Alzheimer’s Respite Line Item has provided millions of dollars
We Need You...To Volunteer
in support of essential education and respite programs (many provided by
Association chapters) for more than a decade. This year, Gov. Ted Strickland
and the Ohio Department of Aging have been strong in advocating for no
major cuts to that funding in the next biennium budget.
As an Association we continue to build a stronger and better informed
network of advocates - both locally and nationally – and the results have been
significant. But if we are to truly succeed in our mission of advocacy on behalf of
the millions of families touched by this disease today and the many more to follow,
our base of advocates must grow larger and our message more effectively delivered.
Today, more than ever, your voice needs to be heard.
For more on the Alzheimer’s Association and its public policy effort or to serve
as an advocate, visit: www.alz.org or contact Steve Olding at steve.olding@alz.org.
A Commonwealth Cause
In an effort to educate state lawmakers and increase public awareness
about Alzheimer’s disease in Kentucky, the Alzheimer’s Association conducted
its third annual Kentucky Alzheimer’s Advocacy Day and Rally at the
Kentucky Statehouse in Frankfort on Feb. 11.
This year’s theme was “Alzheimer’s
Touches Everyone” and to make the
point, advocates wore gloves to show
their support. More than 120 Alzheimer’s
advocates from across the state participated
in the day-long event. Pictured,
Gov. Steve Beshear addresses the audience
during the official afternoon program in
the capitol rotunda.

325 volunteers contributed more than 4,500 hours of service to the Greater
Cincinnati Chapter during the past year.
“The generous donation of time, effort and treasure from all our
volunteers, donors and sponsors enables our chapter to better serve the
thousands of families in the Tri-state area who are affected by Alzheimer’s
disease,” said Executive Director Clarissa Rentz. “We are truly grateful for
their generous support.”
Terri Groteke received the Presidents Award - the chapter’s highest honor
- for her exemplary service to the Greater Cincinnati Chapter.
“Terri has been a consistent, loyal supporter of our chapter for years,”
said Ms. Rentz, who presented the award to Ms. Groteke. “In her own quiet
way, she has given so much to us.”
In addition to her long-time service to the board of directors, Ms.
Groteke has served on the chapter’s finance and executive committees and has
been a long-time supporter of various fundraising events.
The Chapter also honored Ben Koenig and Geoff Smith for their
outstanding contributions to the chapter.
Ben Koenig of Cincinnati was presented the John Horn “Roll Up Your
Sleeves” Memorial Award for his fundraising efforts on behalf of the annual
Memory Walk. Mr. Koenig’s late wife, Ruth, had Alzheimer’s disease and his
participation in the event has been in honor of her.
“Ben has been one of the top individual fundraisers for our Memory
Walk for a number of years. His dedication and enthusiasm serves as a real
inspiration to all of us involved in the walk,” said Marcy Hawkins, Special
Events coordinator.
Professional consultant Geoff Smith of Cincinnati was presented the
Elizabeth Bolles Outstanding Service Award for his work in facilitating the
creation of a new strategic plan for the chapter.
“Geoff’s generous and significant gift of time and expertise allowed our
board of directors and senior management team to create a strategic plan that
clearly defines our vision as a chapter over the next three years and beyond,”
said Ms. Rentz.
