Episode description

We often talk about ways to live well with dementia, but Roger Marple is doing it every day. Roger is living with Alzheimer’s disease and has reignited his passion for advocacy, using it to spread the word about reducing stigma with empathy and kindness. He works with many organizations across Canada, as well as the World Health Organization to help doctors create a more positive and supportive environment for those who are newly diagnosed by planting a seed of hope and connecting people with community resources. He lovingly reminds us that it is possible to live a meaningful life for some time to come after a diagnosis, and to live the best life you possibly can for as long as you can.
