Excellent article by @stevesilberman on how neurodiversity shaped his thinking on his mother's dementia and can be applied to neurodegenerative conditions.

Reminds me a lot about how I think about my approach to my grandfather with a TBI and his communication.

I believe that all of these conditions are a welcome part of neurodivergence and a reminder to why neurodivergence and pathology are not dichotomies. #Neurodiversity
