I didn’t master surfing, but I learned there is joy in the mess of trying.

Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and enhance cognitive function in individuals with Alzheimer’s disease.

Alzheimer’s can be uncertain, but the future is faith-filled and forward-focused. Let’s hold on to the hope that a breakthrough is around the corner.

Alzheimer’s is on the rise so finding little ways to prevent this disease isn’t easy. Weightlifting might just be the answer we have been searching for.

Millions of people are suffering from Alzheimer’s and that doesn’t include the caregivers. But today I am optimistic, I believe there is hope. At least for a treatment if not a cure. My hope is that by the time my children are in their 60’s Alzheimer’s will be no more.

Something magical happens when parents turn into grandparents plus it gives us an excuse to act silly again.

Even on the darkest day you can find something to be thankful for. Sometimes it’s in those moments when you realize how blessed you actually are.

It’s not always sunshine and rainbows, it’s not easy, but we wake up everyday and decide to like each other. We laugh at each other, ourselves and the world around us and somehow it just works.

I have been on this Alzheimer’s journey with my family off and on since I was 16 years old. My prayer is that our family’s journey on this bumpy road ends with me, that a cure is around the corner and my children won’t have to continue walking this path.
