    "I feel powerful. I'm making an impact." Dalma Riquelme of New York is AIM's July Advocate of the Month! Dalma dedicated 14 years to caring for her mother, who had vascular dementia—an experience fueling her advocacy for early detection and diagnosis. Dalma has met with state legislators in Albany and Rep. Ritchie Torres at the AIM Advocacy Forum and his Bronx office. Thanks to her advocacy, Rep. Torres cosponsored the ASAP Act and the AADAPT Act. Dalma's mother passed away in 2024, days before her first AIM Advocacy Forum, where her team was named ACT Team of the Year. Her teammates brought the award home to share with her—advocacy helped Dalma process her grief. "Once you get into advocacy, you realize you're not alone...there's such a bigger picture."

    Good news - I didn’t die & I actually completed the Barkley Fall Classic. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to make the cutoff time for the “50k”, but I was able to get a “marathon” finish. The quotes are due to the fact that I ran more than 28miles & did about 8690 vertical feet. The race director does math a little different than the average human, but it’s all part of his evil genius. It was a great day & there were lotsa people out there pushing their limits (myself included)! I will keep this gofundme open for a while - hoping to get some more contributions. Thank you to all for supporting me in this endeavor!
    Apparently the race tracker wasn’t all that riveting. Anyways I knocked it out & kicking back in my room now. I’ll drop some metrics here tomorrow. I truly appreciate all your support out there!
    Here’s the race tracking link: https://my.raceresult.com/417551/participants#0_32DBB4
