On #WorldAlzheimer'sDay, I want to thank #BruceMiller, #neurologist extraordinaire, for listening w/such #empathy to stories about my father, Jerry, so he could get to know him thru my memories & write #FindingTheRightWords w/me. What a gift he gave me - helping me honor my dad in the way I needed to - & the world. His knowledge of #dementia & ability to communicate it in a way that we can all understand is invaluable. Here is a photo of my dad laughing at his dad, my pop, who is being silly.

On #WorldAlzheimer'sDay and everyday, let's do everything we can do to support research into #dementia, to help people with #dementia, to break the #stigma, and to help caregivers. On this last, here's a slide that may be helpful from a presentation I gave at #Emory's Goizueta's #Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. And here's a link to the entire presentation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhBsk1RLiFE

It's #WorldAlzheimer'sDay. How I love and miss and grieve for my dad every day and will forever. Let's make pictures like this -- the suffering so physical and emotional -- a remnant of the past. I cannot wait/we cannot wait for that to happen.

Must-read essay on the financial costs of #dementia, in this case #LewyBody #dementia, and the utter cruelty and absurdity of #Medicare defining #dementia like this: “We don’t consider dementia a medical issue." Tell that to the person suffering with the #disease; tell that to the caregiver.

My Dad Was Diagnosed With Dementia. Medicare's 7-Word Response Baffled Me.

"I’m simply a daughter who cares about her parents. And I’m a citizen looking around at our irrational health care system and feeling helpless, enraged and scared."

A favorite photo of my parents, Tzip (short for Tzipporah; she never liked her birth name, Matilda, and so always went by her #Hebrew name) and Jerry. Decades after this picture was taken, my mom would become my dad's #caregiver and she gave him all the #love she had. #WorldAlzheimer'sMonth
