Believe it or not – I have written 191 columns under the heading “My Voyage with Dementia.” Writing these columns has been a great experience for me and my cognitive issues. I am not an experienced journalist so that; my learning of dementia research and writing has been invaluable for someone with a dementia diagnosis. …To access this post, you must purchase Digital Subscription - Monthly or Digital Subscription - Yearly.

Yesterday, I had an appointment with my oncologist (cancer). The purpose was (I think) to bring me up to date with my progress in fighting melanomas (the trigger for re-emergence of my DM). So far, for the last three months, I am winning the battle.

But, is a cupa Joe a day good for me? Of course, I am talking about a regular cupa coffee.

I must have repeated myself a number of times but I do enjoy expressing my opinion. Most of these columns were…To access this post, you must purchase Digital Subscription - Monthly or Digital Subscription - Yearly.
