Goro Toshima, one of our newest members who is interested in doing a documentary. He’s an award winning film maker for HBO, PBS, Sundance, to name a few. And where the proceeds will be going from our book sales….

 

Rick has been diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s Disease  EOAD.  I will post these videos as I get them from Rick.  If you are interested in truly understanding what it is like to have Alzheimer’s or are caring for someone with the disease, I believe these video logs will change your life in a positive fashion.

  1. It would be so great for such a talented person to do a documentary on Alzheimer’s. The disease has really changed my mom. She was such a powerhouse in her day and now she sits with a blank look staring sometimes. I talk to her but wonder what is going through he remind while she sits there. Is she remembering things from her past? Is she confused and anxious. It is difficult. We recently lost my dad to cancer and feel in a way we lost my mom as well. Her Alzheimer’s is worse now that dad isn’t around. My thoughts and prayers are with all folks suffering from the disease and their families. I can only hope with all the baby boomers that a cure is in the works or at lease something that will put it into some form of remission.

    1. Hi Annie

      Sorry to hear about your Dad. I lost mine to cancer too in 2001. Mom’s been struggle for 30 years with her memory loss and is in her end stages now. Yes, and I agree I would love to know what they are thinking!
