Wendy Farr with the Utah Alzheimer’s Association on prevention, signs, and keeping positive in the struggle with dementia

Wendy Farr with the Utah Alzheimer's Association is fighting for a world without Alzheimer’s and dementia, and for now, she is on a mission to teach people about the brain disorder. She joins this episode of Relentlessly Resilient to educate listeners on the many facets of understanding Alzheimer's and dementia, supporting patients and caregivers,  warning signs of Alzheimer's, risks, preventive measures, and the many resources available online at ALZ.org and your local chapter of the Alzheimer Association. She reminds us that you can find hope amid the struggle with dementia. The Alzheimer’s Association 24/7 Helpline, 800-272-3900,  is available around the clock, 365 days a year. 

Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.
