Honoring Friends: Sharing My Alzheimer’s Journey

Welcome to my blog! I’m here to share my journey with early-onset Alzheimer’s. I hope it becomes a place where others facing similar paths can find a sense of community. I also want to help friends and family better understand what it’s like to live with this disease.

This past year, I lost two of my dearest friends, Lisa and Kelly. Lisa bravely battled ovarian cancer, and Kelly fought brain cancer. Both of them shared their experiences openly on Facebook to help educate others. I feel it is my turn, and duty, to do the same.

So Lisa and Kelly, watch over me from above. Lisa, I need you to tell me when it is time for me to stop posting so I don’t embarrass myself! Kelly, you would be my biggest cheerleader and I already feel you cheering me on as you run on the streets of Heaven. I miss you both more than words can say.
