Early onset Alzheimer's

This diagnosis is so difficult. How do you go on from this? And how do you do it alone? My heart goes out to anyone with this disease. I knew it from many years ago that there was a problem, But doctors always told me, it's just stress, Take this, you'll feel better. So many doctors, so many years later. I am so happy that they are coming out with ways to help now. And I believe a cure, will be coming soon.
