Brothers Racing Against Time | Global News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Two British brothers, Jordan and Cian Adams, are racing against time as they carry a gene mutation that almost guarantees they’ll develop frontotemporal dementia — the same disease that killed their mother at 52. Instead of succumbing to despair, they’re turning their pain into purpose, raising millions for dementia research and support. Their latest triumph? Sitting in the Royal Box at Wimbledon, a bucket-list moment they’re cherishing with their partners before memories may fade. They’ve already run 33 marathons in 33 days across Ireland to honor their mother’s heritage and the 12 relatives who died from FTD. Up next: the Chicago Marathon and a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro — all while building a movement to end the isolation faced by dementia patients and families.
