This incredible dementia film shows the power of bringing personalized music to Alzheimer’s. See the improvement in quality-of-life for a person with dementia and their family. Hollywood Reporter calls this film “Gloriously inspirational!” (Should everyone should start each day with a personal music list to bring them back alive?) See the trailer. Witness how a small daily music routine leaves people with dementia, their caregivers and everyone around them feeling more alive inside. This is a film with a message that needs to be spread.

With experience in dementia caregiving, public education, and Alzheimer’s-focused writing—and a professional research background shaped in what many consider one of the world’s top laboratories—I work to make complex findings clear, practical, and genuinely helpful for families and professionals providing care.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
