On Thursday, September 27th, Lori La Bey, host of Alzheimer’s Speaks interviews Peter Berry, a man living a positive life with dementia. Peter is a huge advocate who loves riding his bike and raising awareness of Alzheimer’s and other dementias. Today, Lori and Peter have an enlightening and fun conversation on how Peter and his family have dealt with his diagnosis at the age of 50, and how it threw them for a loop and how they recovered and came out stronger. Peter lives in London with his wife. Due to Peter’s dementia symptoms he found it necessary to step down from his position. He just formally retired a few months ago.
Don’t forget to follow Peter on Facebook to get his weekly videos!
