Navigating the World with Your Aging Loved One

When FTD Changes Everything, Finding Strength, Purpose, and Community with Nanci Anderson & Lindsay Early, Co-Founders of Gary’s FUB Team, AFTD Ambassadors, and Family Caregiver Advocates


Listen Later

When Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) entered their lives, everything changed for Nanci Anderson and her daughters, Lindsay Early and Emily Anderson. In this conversation, they open their hearts about the long and confusing road to Gary’s diagnosis, the challenges of caregiving, and the deep grief of watching someone you love slip away too soon. They also share the turning point, when they chose to honor Gary by creating Gary’s FUB Team and raising awareness through advocacy and community. This is a story of heartbreak and resilience, of carrying love forward, and of finding purpose in the face of loss.

 

And here’s where you can step in. Gary’s FUB Team is hosting their annual fundraising event, September 22nd, to benefit AFTD. This is an evening filled with community, storytelling, and hope. Every ticket, every donation, every act of support moves us closer to better care, greater awareness, and the possibility of ending FTD.

If you’d like to attend, contribute, or simply stand alongside families like Nanci and Lindsay’s, you can visit garysfubteam.simpletix.com. Whether you show up in person or from afar, your support matters more than you know!
