An Alzheimer's Story
Minimize


"My mom was diagnosed with AD just over 4 years ago now. At first myself and my family didn't know what Alzheimer's was really, other than it impaired memory. Pretty soon we learned all about this horrible disease, we had to!

"Mom has progressively gotten worse and the bad times are very bad but every now and again, hope remains with some positive moments where dear mom is her normal self. But we all recognize this is the exception to the rule.

"We have made sure she lives a good standard of life still and despite her illness, she's a fighter, we all are now, so to everyone affected by AD - keep fighting." -
