Show notes

On today’s episode we explore younger-onset Alzheimer’s and how a diagnosis at this stage impacts the whole family –especially children and teens who may struggle to understand and cope. We’re joined by Diana Cose, founder of Lorenzo’s House, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families affected by younger-onset Alzheimer’s, and Patti LaFleur, a daughter who navigated her mother’s diagnosis. Together, they share their powerful stories, the idea of dementia justice, and insights on the unique challenges and support needs of younger families facing dementia.For more information on our virtual program ‘Supporting Families of Younger Onset: A Panel Discussion and Virtual Screening' featuring Lorenzo’s House click here.
