Summary

All Home Care Matters was honored to welcome back a dear friend of the show, Marianne Sciucco R.N.

Marianne is an author, board member of All Home Care Matters, and Co-Founder of AlzAuthors. She joined us to discuss and share about an exciting new project that she and the AlzAuthors team have launched, called 6-Word Memoirs.

"In six words, what’s one takeaway from my personal journey caring for a loved one with dementia?"

That's the topic on AlzAuthors Six-Word Memoir Project. They've partnered with Larry Smith and Six-Word Memoirs to share caregiver stories and raise awareness of Alzheimer's and dementia.

Here are some stories already submitted:

• Unexpected blessing from mother's dementia diagnoses.

• Mom, Dad: dual diagnosis, simultaneous decline.

• Diagnosis not unexpected, but still devastating.

• Mom, do you know me today?

• Becoming a mom while losing mine.

• Other people’s stories guided my journey.

• Friendships with other dementia daughters needed.
