Tom retired from an exciting Navy career in aviation maintenance (26 years – 13 enlisted & 13 commissioned – with 3 in the Vietnam War) and followed that first as an entrepreneur who built & sold 2 businesses and then as a sales professional for 15 years. He’s also my husband!
After spending almost 13 years as family caregivers for his father and then my mother with Alzheimer’s, we’ve recently faced the fear of his own memory issues.
Tom is joining me to help encourage you to face your fears if you or a loved one are experiencing memory loss.
It’s natural to experience some memory loss as we age, just as we have wrinkles and muscle loss. But sticking your head in the sand & pretending it isn’t happening won’t help!
By facing your fears, you have the opportunity to find out what’s really going on, get a benchmark for comparison later on, and get treatment if needed.
Addressing the stigma associated with memory loss can help more people have the strength to talk with their family and doctors about what they’re experiencing. It can also help businesses retain experienced employees longer!
Join me & Tom as we talk about our personal journey. We hope others can benefit from open, frank discussion.
