about patti

After losing my Dad to Multiple Myeloma and three months later getting my Mom's diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease I felt desperate to have someone who understood me. So I started this community, not just to commiserate together, but also to share the ways in which we are taking some control back of our own lives, staying healthy and finding joy. It's a choice, to decide that you are no longer going to just react to what is happening and instead really going to try and think about what makes you happy and how to get it.
