Sharing my personal story https://youtu.be/XDr2Uj90ElM?si=YYWOEENfr1pZMLtJ on the Alzheimer Society of Canada platform is a great honour and privilege.

Alzheimer Society of Canada published a compelling video series. In our video series, “Dementia in the Black Community,” I shared my perspective as a caregiver and medical professional with personal experience with my dad’s dementia, increasing awareness and advocating for better support for impacted people and families.

Please share this video with anyone in your network and loved ones to help raise awareness about dementia. Together, we can make a difference!
