If you know and/or love someone with #Alzheimer's and are looking for a community, you might want to check out the resources provided by #AlzAuthors. I am so grateful for their support and honored to be one of their authors.

Yesterday, I spoke about #FindingtheRightWords, the #memoir I wrote with #neurologist #Dr.BruceMiller, at the #Kensington in #RedondoBeach. Here I am with a new friend, Mel, and his buddy, appropriately named Buddy. How wonderful and enlightened that #dogs can be at the Kensington.

It was such an honor to speak recently at #Emory's BrainTalk Live, a weekly series run by the amazing team at the #Goizueta #Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. Here is a link to my talk, which focused on #stigma and #caregiving. I hope you find it helpful. And John Lewis, the exercise guru, is a gem!

#FindingTheRightWords turns 2 today. Here I am w/my co-author #Dr.BruceMiller, a #doctor whose #empathy, #knowledge, and #generosity knows no bounds. That my father died of #early-onset #Alzheimer's couldn't be changed, but writing the #memoir w/ Bruce changed me, helping to put that experience of profound fragmentation (my father's; mine) into something a little more whole. W/so much gratitude to Bruce and the many #neurologists working to #EndAlz always and esp. during #worldalzheimersmonth
