Today is the last day of June and is Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month

Betsy Wurzel discussed what her experiences were with her mother-in-law and her late husband, Matt who had Early Onset Alzheimer's. What Betsy encourages is education about your loved one's diagnosis, how education made a difference with Matt's journey, and how we must advocate for our loved ones, and to celebrate holidays and birthdays, enjoy life, and the importance of planning such as the Power of Attorney for Medical and Financial affairs. Betsy encourages anyone who is having any memory concerns to please speak with your Primary Care Physician!
