Why I share my story

June 25, 2020 (Chapter 24 My Thoughts and Feelings in my book)

In 2005 at age forty-seven, soon after I was diagnosed with a memory impairment, I spoke to God. I promised Him that if this memory impairment progressed slowly and I was able to, I would share my story so that I could help other people understand what it is like. I never break my promises, but especially not to GOD! I still remember having this conversation with Him. I was in a very dark place before this conversation. I think that afterwards, I felt a sense of peace. This is why I’m passionate about sharing my journey!
