Wanda chronicles her mother Sarah's dementia journey in the 1980s - receiving the (mis)diagnosis of Alzheimer's at the age of 52.
Sarah went on to become somewhat of a poster child for early-onset Alzheimer's, being profiled in LIFE Magazine, only for her family to realize many years later that it was in fact Frontotemporal Dementia - and it was affecting many members of their large family. Listen to our very first story of the season told by this fierce and incredible FTD advocate, Wanda.

Remember Me is a podcast created by two moms who became fast friends on Instagram while caregiving for their parents. It features stories of Frontotemporal Dementia - FTD - with a focus on remembering individuals for who they were before the disease. The stories shared are raw, real, and so full of love. We hope it inspires you to "accept the good."
"Always, always, accept the good."
