We’re tackling the question - Should I get genetic testing?

We have the incredible return guest - Erynn Gordon, CGC, program manager at Progranulin Information Navigator. We also brought on some incredible advocates in the FTD Community - Annika from Cure MAPT FTD, Jackie & Wanda from CureGRN and Michael from End the Legacy to share their personal experiences and thought processes around genetic testing.

Let us know what you think when you listen. - R+M

Today we talk about 'the end' - our experiences, our fears + how peaceful it ended up being. We call in our friend Katie Duncan, nurse practitioner, educator and founder of Death Care Coach. and she so gently explains what happens to the body in the final days, hours + minutes. And above all letting us know that the body knows exactly what to do.

Help us de-stigmatize the conversation around death and dying by sharing this episode.

One of the hardest parts of the wreckage that FTD leaves in its wake is the effect it has on families. In today's episode, we open up about the dynamics that have shifted and changed in our families and friendships - and what we've learned through it all. Listen with an open heart + mind as we dive in.

We got robbed. And we want to talk about it. The ways we coped - the ways we didn't. Where we found joy, and where we didn't. The awkwardness of trying to relate to others. And in the end, Rach gives us the perfect Rachaelism related to sandwich caregiving. Let us know what you think when you listen, and if you'd like you can now WATCH US ON YOUTUBE!

Welcome to Season 11 - we're reflecting on 5 years of this crazy journey -- meeting by chance, losing our parents, building Remember Me, learning about FTD, healing, research, hope and resilience from amazing people in our community, experts + more.

We'll share some of the key themes of the last 5 years, but in a deeper way...and with our own personal stories. We're calling it "Real talk"... Here we go!

....a quick look into our 11th Season of Remember Me.

This season is all about our reflections on our personal journeys and how we've learned and (hopefully) grown over 5 years of producing Remember Me.

It's called REAL TALK. It's different + a little risky... but here goes nothing. Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose!

See you on Oct 1! xx - R+M

In our Season 10 finale, Alyssa describes the FTD journey with her father, Tommy - starting from her perspective at 11 years-old. She weaves us through her memories of her father's strange behavior - and the long road to finding answers. This story covers so much about family dynamics - but also what a healing journey can look like. And the unbelievable things that happen in life that we just can't explain. Thank you, Alyssa for sharing your story with us. You are an incredible woman. Keep fighting.
