An Unfiltered Alzheimer’s Story

What started as a diagnosis of depression in late 2019 has become an unimaginable 6+ year journey. Nothing could have prepared me for the eventual diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia—or for everything that came after it.

Looking back, I’m not sure how I managed to keep up with my own life, family, work, and responsibilities while trying to figure out how to help Bill through a disease that slowly takes away the person you knew.

This series is raw, honest, and deeply personal. My hope is that by sharing our experience, it sheds light on what it really takes to care for a family member who can no longer care for themselves. If it helps even one family feel less alone, or encourages someone to seek help sooner, it will have been worth telling.

Thank you for following along with us. ❤️

From the end of 2019 until today, it’s been a long and heartbreaking road to get Bill diagnosed and find the care he truly needed.

The challenges just kept coming—delays in getting answers, discovering that the woman posing as his caretaker was actually scamming him and stealing his money, navigating an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, finding the right care… and so much more than I could ever fit into one post.

My hope is that by sharing our story, it helps other families feel less alone, recognize warning signs sooner, and know what to do when they’re faced with the unimaginable.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 15, we’ll share the first reel in our new series: “An Unfiltered Alzheimer’s Story.”

This isn’t a polished highlight reel. It’s the raw, honest reality of what Alzheimer’s has looked like for our family—and if it helps even one person, every difficult memory will be worth sharing.

Ash and I took a trip to Tacoma to see family! Once we picked up the boys from summer camp the fun began - playing baseball, soccer and running around. Day 1 was wonderful, the boys love having cousin Ashleigh here with them 💙💙

Whatever your journey is—losing weight, reversing type 2 diabetes, navigating perimenopause—the first step is breaking free from the negative, hopeless messages you’ve been told your entire life.
You have far more control over your health, fitness, and well-being than you’ve been led to believe.
Too often we get stuck in a mindset of “I can’t.” We convince ourselves that change isn’t possible, so we never take the actions that could completely transform our lives.
Choose hope.
Choose consistency.
Choose an “I can” mindset.
Because you absolutely can lose weight. You can improve your metabolic health. You can build strength, increase your energy, and feel incredible through perimenopause.
Your future isn’t written for you—it’s built by the choices you make today.
