Then a volunteer from Hospice came….a Chinese pre-med student at U.K….to sit with my mother in law so Lawrence and I could […]

The Walk to End Alzheimer’s is just six days away! I have been attending the walk yearly since 2011. My father in law had the illness, which cost the family immeasurable amounts of time, money and suffering. There is no way to know exactly when the onset of the disease occurred, but he began to […]
