Hi everybody! I am new to this site, but wanted to sign up, to try to help others caring for/living with someone suffering from Alzheimer's/dementia. I have recently started working as an account executive/community liaison for a hospice company, where I have learned so much already. My grandmother also has dementia, so I do help take care of her. Between caring for somebody and working for hospice, I have learned so much about the resources out there, especially the awesome benefit of hospice, but also how this disease progresses and just how fast a major decline can happen. I am here to help!
