Dementia stole my grandmother from us. I am fighting to give families more time

Comments

1. Wraith Kite: it's heartbreaking when loved ones are taken from us too soon; earlier diagnosis could've changed her story
2. Emma: i've seen that ravaging pain in my own grandfather's eyes as his words faltered and slipped away
3. Suzukiarlo: something about losing someone slowly really stays with you
4. Pale Sable: losing someone so close is brutal enough, but not knowing how to help makes it worse
5. Zoewexxo: actually met my grandma only when she lost control of herself completely, wish I'd seen her before that, hope this woman can make a difference
6. Yaraweber: That conversation you're showing is hauntingly familiar. What's being done to address the shortage of specialists and resources for earlier diagnosis?
7. Umbra Sable: I've been following the work of Dr. Lisa Genova, who wrote that book on how our brains can be affected by lifestyle changes - I'd love to see a nationwide shift
8. Ranacleo: good for her but this is all just gonna get tangled up in the healthcare industry's bureaucratic red tape
9. Umbra Sable: can't even fathom the pain of losing a loved one like that it's just not fair
10. Milan: I can relate to her loss, but I'm not convinced that pushing for earlier diagnosis is the answer. What about addressing healthcare disparities and access issues first?
11. Zoeholtxo: I've been following Alzheimer's advocacy groups, and it feels like finally we're getting some movement towards earlier diagnosis - which I think is crucial in helping people cope with these diseases
