My mother passed away six years ago after several years of worsening dementia effects that ended in Alzheimer’s disease.
It started when I noticed she could no longer follow the plot of a movie on tv or read the historical fiction novels she once loved.
Over the years, she declined further until she could not walk, talk or eat. Her journey from an engaged and active woman in her 80s to her death was less than five years. I know for many people, the journey was- and is- much longer.
It’s because of my experience and those of so many others that I want to “shine a light” on all of the important information we can learn about keeping our brains healthy. I’m sharing this campaign from the Alzheimer’s Association to help us all learn more and find support- as caregivers, family members and people (like me) who want to remain curious and engaged for many, many more years.
Friday 6/21/24 is the - the longest day of sunlight in our calendar year. I hope you’ll use your ability to enjoy all of the hours in that day to feel gratitude for all you can learn about brain health at alz.org

At this point, I’m all about working to provide a living while truly living my life! I’m no longer interested in climbing ladders and burning myself out in a non-stop grind to get ahead.
