Mike Wright on his family's charity today at Camden Yards

It is a charity very near and dear to Orioles right-hander Mike Wright. And today at Camden Yards, his sister will have a community booth set up on the main concourse to raise money.

It is all about helping families dealing with an Alzheimer's disease or dementia patient. Mike's mom is dealing with this now and the Wright family wants to educate and help other families that may have to deal with such a situation.

Wright hopes that money raised can go toward hosting a conference this summer in his home state of North Carolina. But most importantly, he and his family want to help other families who have to deal with a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia.

"My mom has dementia," Wright said this morning. "So this is about research and for caregivers and getting people prepared to take care of their family members. Really just make this an all-around better situation when the time comes.

"When my sister had to move in with my mom, she didn't know what to expect, what route my mom was going to take. Didn't know how to prepare for this. It is our goal to enlighten people in this situation and help them get through this as best as possible.

"Dementia means something is wrong with the brain and Alzheimer's is like 80 percent of their patients. A lot of research goes to Alzheimer's. We do research, as well, but caregivers are very important. We are trying to help families out and make their life quality, as well."

So, yes, this is a great cause. Go to their website at wrightstateofmind.org.
