In his words. Living with young onset dementia.
DAI Member, Rich Jamieson and his daughter Alex were recently interviewed by CBC News in Canada.
Imagine celebrating your 52nd birthday while being diagnosed with young-onset dementia. Rich also watched his father go through that very same diagnosis at the age of 49 so Rich was painfully aware of what was happening to him. While he still can, he wants to share his story to raise awareness.
