My Story…
Hey everyone! My family has always been important to me and so many childhood memories are with my grandparents. My grandmother, Marjorie Hillier, had Alzheimer's. I remember the changes and experiences as Alzheimer's progressed for her, even though I was still a child. I remember her beautiful personality, her intelligence and her incredible recipes (especially desserts). I remember weekends with my grandparents having fun in their backyard sandbox and I still remember their house and yard as if I was there yesterday. I remember the confusion and the changes and the sadness that came as Alzheimer's progressed. Awareness of Alzheimer's, resources to help the person experiencing it and their family members, and continued research is so important. My mother volunteers with the division in Newfoundland and Labrador. The Alzheimer's Society of Canada is a great resource for anyone seeking support and all donations will go to them.
