📝 Last semester I wrote a paper for my ENGL 1302 class about my #Nana and her battle with #Alzheimers. I knew a little bit about it while she was dealing with the disease but since I was only 14-years-old when she passed away I didn't know what could have possibly caused it. I threw myself into this paper and almost didn't think of anything else for weeks and weeks. #TeepaSnow and her videos helped me understand the disease and was a great resource for this project I'm sharing with the world.
📌 My Nana was my Nana. She was fierce. She was smart. She was brave. But even with all of her amazing qualities, #Alzheimer's #Disease still found a way to steal her from us like chiseling at stone, taking her piece by piece until she was a shell of the person she once was. In this video I talk about what I believe could have caused her dementia as well as some of the early signs she had and how my family handled taking care of her.
📌 My hope for this video is to just share my Nana's story -- along with my Granny's as she had #VascularDementia, which is talked about in the video -- and raise awareness so that there could one day be a cure.
