Thank you so much for sharing your inspirational attitude. I know that the diagnosis of this disease is difficult to face, but it sounds like you've figured out how to make Alzheimer's become a part of your life, as opposed to letting it taking over your life.
Please stay in touch and let us know what's going on with you on your journey.

Ginger,
Thank you so much for sharing your story with our community.
You courage is so admirable. I know that others on this site will find hope in your words, and maybe courage of their own.
Have you ever read any of the blogs by Leah? She is 58 years-old and was recently diagnosed with vascular dementia. She writes a lot about what it's like, and what she's doing to keep on keepin' on. You can read her blogs at A Day in the Life of A Dementia Sufferer, right here on our site.
Thanks again for writing. And keep in touch.
MK
