Thank you for sharing your story. I know what you are going through. My MIL was diagnosed last year at 58 years old. Early onset sucks !! We know there is a long road ahead of us. But the changes are allready so rapid.
One day at a time.

I’m all registered and looking forward to anything I can do to help. My gram is still in the early stages, but the Dr.s said that her’s is an aggressive form. I’ve always been very close to my gram, but last time I saw her she had to be reminded of who I was. Thankfully she still seems mostly herself, but my Aunt (her caregiver) says that my once overly polite gram is losing her filter and will say awkward and sometimes aggressive things to people. She’s also broken her hip twice–the second time because she forgot she couldn’t walk because she was healing from a hip fracture.
Thanks so much for sharing about your Grandma and your family’s experience with Alzheimer’s.

Such a great post. I’m so sorry this hits so close to home for you, but we will one day find a cure. I know it.

I’m so sorry to hear your grandma has Alzheimer’s. My grandma had the early stages of it and it was tough. I’m glad to hear this registry is available, it sounds like it has lots of helpful resources.

In reply to Garry. Glad I could share about it! Hoping the registry & the research they're doing with help find better preventative measures and ultimately, a cure!
