Synopsis

It's a terrifying diagnosis that nobody wants to hear, especially about themselves: dementia. But now that it's diagnosed, do you simply sit by and watch your life fade away? Not if you're author Sally Faith. In her energetic manner, she takes the bull by the horns and shows you how to LIVE with early dementia. There's much you can do to secure a satisfying life for yourself if you do it now, while you still have the mental capacity to make solid choices for yourself. 

Watch as the author absorbs the painful truth, then gets down to business: she sells her house and finds an independent living facility where she can graduate to memory care; she organizes her life, so she can remain independent for as long as possible; she incorporates new and interesting activities that keep her brain active and learning; and she embraces a positive attitude, determined to enjoy herself for the rest of her days. 

In I Am Losing my Memory; I'm NOT Losing My Mind, Sally Faith provides an example for those who have early dementia AND those who love them about how to stay positive, embrace change, and live in a state of gratitude and humor.
