After losing my father to a long battle with Alzheimer's, I wrote this essay to give a glimpse into this horrific disease, draw attention to the red flags and signs (there are many people at this very moment who have a family member with dementia and still do not realize it), and especially to help people navigate through the devastating journey of having a loved one with Alzheimer's, because it is the family and those closest to the individual with the disease who bear the greatest burden.
Most people find themselves thrust into this nightmare completely unprepared and ill-equipped, just as we were. Helping others through this means the world to me and I would be eternally grateful if you read it and/or shared it in any capacity possible.
Thank you so much,
Darren Keith
