This morning, the Washington State/Northern Idaho chapter of the Alzheimer's Association extended to me an offer to join the board of directors. They had been vetting me for the role for a month or so. (This will be on top of the role that I already have as "Ambassador" to our congressional representative.) This, of course, was very flattering.
(So where did the term "to vet" come from in this sort of context? Before you buy a race horse, you want to know that it is in good health before you sign the check. So have the vet check it over first. Or, you may need to vet the horse before a race.)
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.
Congratulation's! Your insights will be very valuable to the association.
