We all have stories about Alzheimer’s, some funny, some tragic, some painful… And we need to laugh together as often as possible. For today’s Real Alzheimer’s Talk, I’m sharing one of my favorite funny stories.

Please share yours as well, either in the comments below, by joining our Facebook group ACM Exchange, or by creating your own video and tagging it with #RealALZTalk. We need to share our stories, so no one affected by Alzheimer’s feels alone and so we break the silence around dementia.
