This short documentary was very powerful. As I watched, I could relate to the various caregivers. This film made me realize I am not alone in my struggle to care for my mother who suffers from the beginning stages of dementia. It is a must see!

This film is a much-needed wake-up call to the importance of compassion, love, and support for the victims of Alzheimer’s and their caregivers. The heartfelt stories illuminate the heavy emotional toll of caring for a loved one with this disease, difficult realities rarely glimpsed outside of clinical settings. The challenges of this disease are endless, and are often faced alone. As a social worker, I found the film touching, informative, and insightful – A must watch for anyone seeking ways to understand the burden and lend a helping hand.

My Story of Alzheimer’s Disease is a beautiful film that truly captures each caregiver’s unique and heartfelt story. I was especially moved by Dr. Virmani’s Story. How wonderful to see a medical professional so moved by his experiences in treating his patients and considering their families/caretakers. Poignant and Powerful.

What an empathetic narrative. I was moved by the gentle crescendo of compassionate spirit toward the end. You project a voice of experience with the real human cost of Alzheimer’s that is genuine, beneficent, and ultimately uplifting.
