Dementia Discussions

It's the little things


Listen Later

Winston Greene first noticed his wife Pansy was forgetting things and repeating herself in 2010. As the disease progressed, he progressed along with it, taking over more of the little things that Pansy could no longer do. Winston tells Barbara how joining an Alzheimer’s support group saved him by making him feel less alone. They also discuss the important advocacy work the couple does on behalf of the Alzheimer’s Association. They’ve even lobbied in Washington, DC and Sacramento, appearing in person to raise money and awareness. “They hear our story,” Winston says. “It’s so much more powerful coming right from us.”
