Representing DAI in Italy recently, co-founder and Treasurer John Sandblom from the USA gave a brilliant speech on World Alzheimer's Day in Milan, supported to attend this event with his wife Cindy, by Alzheimer's Italia. We believe he is the second person diagnosed with dementia to have presented publicly in Italy, and thank one of our pioneer advocates and a DAI Board member, James McKillop for leading the way there, as he presented in Italy in 2004.
Thank you John Sandblom
