My personal journey with dementia began when my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.  You might say it runs in the family since my dad, aunt, and grandmother all died of Alzheimer's.  At the time of these family journeys, my work in hospice was demanding greater knowledge of dementia as many of our patients were living with the disease. I was hungry to know how to help others and began to receive training.
