I Am Waiting for When I Forget I Have Alzheimer’s Disease

Book excerpt: This is a different type of book on Alzheimer’s. There are no claims on how to prevent this dementia. There are no claims on how to cure Alzheimer’s. In a cancer diagnosis, the patient can fight and win. In Alzheimer’s, no one has fought and won. Don’t fight, have fun. The patient’s time is limited, so instead of looking for false nostrums, look on how you can improve your relationships with people and socialize. This book is not about the futility of treating Alzheimer’s. I will leave that to the many trials that have been done. This book is about how I adjusted to the shock of the diagnosis and then went on to live the best life I possibly could.
