Episode description

Each of us has a story to tell…a most important story, that is, the story of our lives. But as we age, and especially if our fate includes a disability like Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, then that story can easily get lost or jumbled. That’s where a new service called MemoryWell comes in. MemoryWell is the brainchild of Jay Newton-Small, an entrepreneur with a long and successful career in journalism. While caring for her own late father, who suffered from Alzheimers, Jay used her writing skills to tell his story in a way that burdensome questionnaires just can’t do. His caregivers loved it, and it totally transformed the quality of care he received. Now MemoryWell is available to all of us, and here to tell us about it is inventor, entrepreneur, and professional journalist Jay Newton-Small.
