Great article about how one day can bring so many perspectives, reasons, etc. together. I love this insight, since it's new to me, but very heavily underserved, even more so considering the upcoming baby boomer lifestyle. Keep up the great work, Raad!

John good to meet you and thank you! The landscape is changing on a daily bases and the pace of the change is only going to get faster as more Boomers enter their time of need for support services in all shape and form across multiple if not every industry and sector. Education and advocacy is key towards securing our collective independence and continuing or even enhanced quality of life.

Indeed J & thank you for your words of support. I can't even begin to think of the impacts wide reaching and life changing that this disease has on all it touches directly or indirectly….We all do need to suit up and strive for a cure after all it isn't just our loved ones who are vulnerable to its…it someday could be us as well!

Thank you Leslie! I am glad you enjoyed it….The more I delve into this field the more I realize just how many layers and nuances it has. I firmly believe that as time moves on here we will find ourselves stepping away more and more from a cookie cutter, one size fits all approach to a truly personalized set of solutions and care plans.

Thank you for posting this Raad and to J for introducing me to you! As we confront the changing landscape of our parents generation, we must look at new and different ways to serve THEM. After all of the years of being there for us, it is the least we can do. Great work Raad.

Thanks for this perspective, Raad. It really does open new ways of thinking when we put ourself in others shoes and see through their eyes. Alzheimers is tragic and I just can't imagine what it must be like. I appreciate your empathy and concern for those affected. Keep up the good work to improve the lives of our elders- someday it will be us….karma
