Maureen Matthews has told me glowingly about your work and I am so happy to have found your website.
Maureen and I met at the Dementia Care conference in Chicago after corresponding for many months. I was diagnosed with Dementia Probable Alzheimer’s Type at age 48 in 2006.
Your path and mine are scheduled to cross when I speak before you at the New York Early Stage conference on Friday, May 2.
I know you are on the board of Story Corps Memory Loss Initiative. StoryCorps came out to Los Angeles for the Early Memory Loss Forum that we put on there last October. They interviewed seven people that day. The first interview they did that morning was with Chuck Jackson and that piece aired on NPR’s Morning Edition. Here is the link –

PBS “News Hour” also filmed that day and their segment aired this month. Here is the link in case in case you missed it or would like to pass it on, the video of the entire segment is now available online at —

Thank you very much.
Please take good care.
Very Best Regards –

Rich
