In the morning the center of the Association of Relatives of Alzheimer Sewer AFAD, has opened its doors on a day scheduled within the activities that this association have been developed to mark World Alzheimer's Day (September 21 ) and offer attendees a closer and more realistic view of the work carried out on the same day, in its different services.

Early in this Open Day, President of AFAD Sewer, Julia Fernandez, welcomed the authorities had gathered, the Director of the IMAS (Instituto Murciano Social Action), Miguel Angel Miranda, Mayor of Sewer Joaquin Buendia and Councilwoman Social Welfare and Health, Francisca Terol, along with other members of the Municipal Corporation, accompanying them to visit the facilities and make them known, with a brief talk on the state, envisioning the photo exhibition with the activities developed and Video Association.

Subsequently made a visit to the therapeutic zone day stays.

All had a common denominator speeches by the authorities, the work thanks to the efforts AFAD Sewer and post since the creation of the Association by its President, Julia Fernandez, who thanked the institutions present for coming to the call and "arroparnos on this day. The beginnings of AFAD were given the need that the family had to carry out all our projects, without resorting to the services that were provided at the regional level and be able to have them much closer with the services we offer here. "

Julia Fernandez also said that "hopefully not have to go further. We currently have 63 seats and hope not to have to increase in places, although the disease is increasingly growing and I hope I never have filled the Center, for the sake families and patients. This disease is a setback, it goes unlearn and you get to be that you do not know who you are. In this disease worth more work from the heart, it is better to have good heart to have a good memory. It is what we have learned from working with them on their first, second and third phase, along with their families. "

Sewer Mayor Joaquin Buendia, said "AFAD is an example of different realities that are reflected in this Association. One is the importance of associations, creating a unit to defend certain interests of a particular group, is able to put up major projects like them and they do, all together, from management teams, partners and key partners they have. AFAD is an example for other groups in the field of health, social services or other many areas that joining, bringing together interests and shouting with one voice in one direction can be achieved many things. The objective of AFAD awake affection, sensitivity and support. Therefore, both the City Council's own Ministry of Family and Equal Opportunities, as always we'll be there to support these initiatives. Hopefully not have to grow in most places in this center, because the disease is gone or has it managed to reduce.

Our financial support will be safe as far as we can, also institutional, yet the government team, with all the Municipal Corporation, I am sure, to keep growing and improving the services we have to give while we have to give them. "

The Director of the IMAS, Miguel Angel Miranda said first "give thanks to the President of AFAD and professionals of the Centre for the quality you offer, but you are the guide of this great project. It is a year in which administrations, both regional and municipal, are thinking people, it is the legislature of the people. Every time we help someone feel us well, we will fight the next day for another. The most important thing for me is people with alzheimer but ye family. In a family when a family member dies it goes really bad, but when we have someone we love him with all my soul and day by day we are moving a little and suffer thinking that it will not be as before, you need all the help in the world and all the love, because we are all in similar situations and family know what it is to lose a person in everyday life and face him. That's hard. So sometimes it is not the money.

We have to help in any way, because you're going wrong and you need our love and understanding. "
