Alzheimer’s Advocacy

My Mom, Jan, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s when she was 56 years old and still working two jobs. I was 33 and became her full time caregiver. All plans and dreams of her future and my own halted, never to be obtained. Read my book, Alzheimer’s: Beyond Caregiving for a visual and poetic journey through 17 years of caregiving challenges, shame and grief.

"…this is like sitting down with a friend who knows what it’s like.” – Jodi Womack, author of Get Momentum.
