in I Am Living With Younger Onset Alzheimer's

Hi! I am 56 years old, and I received my early-onset ALZ diagnosis two weeks ago. I had a positive Amyloid & Tau PET scan. I'm waiting for my APOE test to come back to decide whether I can or will move forward with donanemab treatment. I'm very emotional, sad & scared of the side effects and my future
