I have Early -Onset ALZ. That has limited my ability to learn songs, but I still love to sing. So if you notice me looking toward my screen, it to see the words I can't remember. I decide to record as many as I could and put them up for my wife and kids and grandkids, as this is how they have always seen me and always remember me, Singing. I get out of bed singing...LOL

Early Onset Alzheimer's disease: Jim's Story
When it had only been a single incident, Jim Mann might not have gone to see his doctor. When a series of strange events happened within one month of each other, he knew something was wrong. Because of his age Jim didn't expect to be presented with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, but being only 58 years old people did not believe him; they said he was too young. He now says that finding out was the best thing he could have done; that the knowledge has allowed him to fight the progression of the disease.
If you're concerned about a loved one, take him or her to see their doctor.
