2. #Plumbers
3. #Carpenters
4. #Masons
5. #Blacksmiths / #Metalworkers
6. #Architects / #Planners

What love looks like: "Bruce would want that for our daughters. You know, he would want them to be in a home that was more tailored to their needs, not his needs."

The #UnitedStates of #Aunties: The #culture #powering #VicePresident #KamalaHarris' #campaign

In the #Black and #SouthAsian #communities Harris hails from, being an “#auntie” is an #honorific for #caregivers, #communitybuilders — and maybe even the next #president

Congratulations to #neurologist BruceMiller, recipient of the Susan Newhouse & Si Newhouse Award of Hope for a lifetime of #FTD (#frontotemporaldementia) research. His brilliance & empathy have touched so many, myself included. 1 of the most profound gifts he gave me was a #precision #diagnosis: #early-onset #Alzheimer's w/the #logopenic variant (word-finding). How I wish he'd been my father's #dr. during those dark years. His care for #families, #caregivers, & #people w/#dementia is unrivalled.

I'm honored to be talking this Friday about #caregiving, #grief, #dementia, and #FindingtheRightWords at the #Canterbury Senior Residence in #PalosVerdes. This book with #Dr.BruceMiller of #UCSF has many audiences, and we had all of them in mind as we wrote it. Those with #dementia and #caregivers are among the most important (#doctors and #litstudies people, #medhums, too), but we especially hope to reach the ones loving and caring everyday for people with dementia. #EndAlz
