Support Alzheimer’s Research & Care – In Honour of My Mom, Janet Antonioni.

Watching a loved one lose pieces of themselves to dementia is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. When my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, it changed everything. I’ll never forget the strength it took for her to face each day—and the relief we felt when her symptoms were finally stabilized through the right medication and care.

I’m incredibly grateful for the support she received in Sudbury, Ontario, and now I want to give back—because this fight isn’t over. As we all grow older, we’re not just supporting others—we’re investing in a future we hope is brighter and more compassionate for all of us.

This May, I’m taking part in the Pro-Am for Alzheimer's™ in support of Baycrest which is the largest hockey charity event in North America.   This unique 2-day tournament in Toronto features NHL Alumni and hockey enthusiasts skating in support of Alzheimer’s research and care.

Funds raised in the Pro-Am for Alzheimer's in support of Baycrest support care and research into Alzheimer’s and related dementias at Baycrest Foundation, one of the world’s top neurocognitive science centres in research on memory and aging.

My personal goal is to raise $2,500, and every single donation brings us one step closer to better treatments, more hope, and ultimately, a cure.

If you can, please donate—and if you can’t, a share or a kind word goes a long way too. Let’s help ensure no one faces this alone.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
