Episode 23: A Family's Journey with Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease

09/01/22 • 56 min

Edith's brother-in-law, Michael, had early-onset Alzheimer's Disease. His daughter Michelle and granddaughter Lyn take us through their journey with him, sharing the highs and lows. We can't thank them enough for sharing their stories with such honesty.
Michael inspired the Alzheimer's & Dementia Resource Center's "Michael's Mission". Part of that mission is the "Michael's Moments" support group for families caring for someone living with early onset dementia.
