I've been caring for my mother as she has slipped down into AD for about seven years.  We've overcome so many challanges together that I became empassioned to share any help or ideas with others who are not so far along as we are.  My son and I made a brief video to help guide people to my blog and facebook page.  I found it appalling that there was such a lack of help and network in my geographical area.  However, things are much improved and I have made it my mission to continue to get the word out about all things dementia in our community.
