On September 26, I spoke at the annual meeting of the Washington State Association of Activity Professionals. It was a state-wide meeting, and I'm guessing that 30 people attended my track. Activity professionals provide therapeutic activity programming for the elderly in adult family homes, long term care facilities, senior centers, as well as in assisted living
and retirement communities.
I felt that I was graciously received, and they allowed me to video my talk. I posted it on the Dementia Monster YouTube channel, and you can see the video here. (Actually, it should be available after 9:00 a.m. on September 27. It's uploading as I write this.)
In my book, "Beating the Dementia Monster," I describe what has occurred since 2015 when I first knew I had memory problems. (You can find it on Amazon.com.) I have experienced remarkable improvement, and I’m certain that I can share valuable information with many others. In this second edition I continue my story to 2020 and provide greater understanding of how Alzheimer's advances and why what I did worked.
