What is it like to live with Alzheimer’s disease?
Follow us on Twitter during Alzheimer Awareness Month when we will be tweeting the real life day-to-day experiences of Jim Mann, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease at the young age of 58.
From losing track while counting change to buy a newspaper to getting disoriented while driving a car, the tweets will give you a glimpse of life from the perspective of a person in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
Follow Jim on Twitter at
@AlzheimerBC with the hashtag #injimsshoes.
