This week, we proudly present an interview with Lauren Miller Rogen, Filmmaker, Alzheimers Advocate, co-founder of HFC, and now friend of Remember Me.
Lauren openly shares her mother Adele's journey with early onset Alzheimers disease... and she shares the journey with such honesty, vulnerability and love. She talks about what it was like to try and start her life in Los Angeles while her conflicted heart wanted to be back in Florida with her mom - a feeling many of us know all too well. And of course, we talk all about her incredible mom - who she was before the disease - an amazing teacher and mother.
This conversation was so relatable - the feelings, the heartache, it is all the same to what we felt with our own parents... and Lauren did an amazing job of showing us her accept the good outlook - creating a beautiful community and incredible resources through HFC. Below, you'll find a link to our blog post with some great resources from HFC that we think you should check out ASAP: 5 HFC Resources You Should Check Out Now
Thank you to Lauren (and to Seth) for the amazing work they are doing for this community. For giving this community a voice. We are so thankful.
xx R + M
