Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Just learned this weekend that a 57 yo friend has been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's, he's a year younger than me (yikes). He is still working, no thought of retiring...
Been trying to read up on what a friend can/should do in support, but most everything that Google has turned up seems geared toward the patient (understandably). What I did read seemed bleaker than I expected for the "early onset" variety, and another friend told me he had a college buddy who went from running a large Allstate branch to diapers in about 2 years at age 57.
Any experience and counsel on what I can do as a friend?
