My name is nick sam sam bliss and i wrote a book about a family centered in north dakota that cares a vary genetic mutation that guarantees alzheimers disease, and i really pleased to say that with me today is lindsey, white house father, dean, was a central figure my book and she will speak today as well about some of the experiences hat their family and she personally have again through with alzheimers disease. When i think back to the first time i met members of the family in 2009 it really feels like im reviewing the notes i took on someone elses life. And spent a couple of hours interviewing them. And when i came out it was like i had gone through the looking glass. I was completely blown away by their story and what they were going through. And for me i was never going to be the same. Whichan is why i i decide to wa book about them. I learn from them quite a few lessons that id like to share with y
