They were 73 when they passed, six months apart from one another. For three years of their lives, I was their primary caregiver and spent every day with them. Seeing a parent suffer from this disease is something no one should go through. I am a Christian and even in the darkest days when I didn’t have the strength to open my bible, I felt God carrying me through.At the age of 50, I was diagnosed with MCI or Pre-Alzheimer's and also found out I have one copy of the APOE4 gene. I worked with my doctors and started focusing on my lifestyle, diet, exercise, and brain health. After a year of focusing on these areas of my life, I regained my cognitive function and kept my cognitive abilities at 100%. Once I saw the positive outcome of focusing on brain health to fight Alzheimer's and Dementia, I felt compelled to give back. That is when The Night of Hope was born. The Night of Hope is a pending 501(c)(3) with the mission of bringing hope to those living or caring for someone with Alzheimer's or Dementia. www.thenightofhope.com

Brain Fog and Early Onset Alzheimer's After Covid
Have you or someone you know experienced persistent brain fog after recovering from Covid? You’re not alone. As we navigate the ongoing effects of the pandemic, many are reporting lasting cognitive difficulties, including memory lapses, confusion, and mental fatigue. But is this just brain fog, or could it be something more? In this episode, we explore the alarming link between Covid-related brain fog and early onset Alzheimer’s disease.
Alzheimer’s and dementia experts are beginning to notice a disturbing trend: people in their 40s and 50s are presenting with early signs of cognitive decline, often following a bout with Covid. Is this new wave of brain fog a temporary condition, or could it lead to more serious long-term effects? We dive deep into the science behind post-Covid cognitive symptoms, discussing how spike proteins and inflammation may contribute to the risk of early onset Alzheimer’s.
We also examine the role of functional medicine in addressing brain fog and cognitive health. Discover what top doctors, like Dr. Dale Bredesen and Dr. Peter McCullough, are recommending for managing these post-Covid symptoms and what supplements might help reduce the risk of long-term brain damage. Whether you're dealing with lingering brain fog or concerned about early signs of Alzheimer’s, this episode is packed with insights and actionable advice to protect your brain health.
