Good morning. It's an honor to be here. The poet Elizabeth Bishoponce wrote: 'the Art of Losing isn't hard to master: so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster.' I'm not a poet, I am a person living with Early Onset Alzheimer's, and as that person I find myself learning the art of losing every day. Losing my bearings, losing objects, losing sleep, but mostly losing memories…
--Still Alice the movie.
A movie that teaches me to treasure my memory and in short to be grateful for everything God gives us. I was very much touched when Alice (Julianne Moore) said that she prefers to have cancer than Alzheimer because it seems people pay attention more on them by wearing pink ribbon and show their sympathy and most important think you still remember your life.
