Join us as local author Marc Alderdice discusses his wife's journey with Alzheimer's and what he learned along the way.
Marc Alderdice, PhD is a local author who has worked in academia and with pharmaceutical companies and managed clinical trials for potential treatments of Alzheimer's disease. Marc also had to deal with the disease on a personal level when his wife, Mary was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's. He learned the hard way that living with Alzheimer's personally is much more different and difficult than studying it objectively. He takes us on Mary's and his emotional journey and shows us how we can "dance" more and be happier no matter what life throws our way.
