Go ahead! Teach the world about Alzheimer’s!

Yep, you’ve listened to the medical lingo, you’ve read all the “facts” about Alzheimer’s, you’ve witnessed its effects every day.

You could write THE book about this damn disease!

Well, do it! Start telling the world about this horrific disease because a lot of people are not paying attention. They’re ignoring the fact that Mom or Dad or Uncle Joe or Aunt Bea or whoever is having problems with memory or social skills. They blame whoever’s living in the same house with them for “letting it happen” or for telling lies.

Teach the world NOW how to help your loved one, how to help you. Don’t wait until you’re too exhausted to educate or they’re too far away emotionally to listen.
