On today’s episode, we’re joined by John Chandler of Long Island, NY, who is living with MCI, and Christine Burnett of Meriden, CT, who is living with Alzheimer’s, for a candid conversation about what it means to live well after a diagnosis. The two share how they stay active and engaged — prioritizing exercise, routine, connection and advocacy to maintain purpose and quality of life. They also open up about the realities of navigating a diagnosis, including the personal decision-making process around Alzheimer’s treatments and the emotional ups and downs that come with this journey.Need assistance?
