Forget Me Not
Introduced by Australian Story presenter Leigh Sales.
Jim Rogers thought Alzheimer's was an old-person's disease … until he was diagnosed at the age of 55, becoming one of 29,000 Australians living with younger-onset dementia.
Now he's being hailed as the 'pin-up boy' for dementia, challenging the stigma surrounding it and spreading the message that while dementia is terminal and incurable, you can slow its progress and live well with the condition.
Watch 'Forget Me Not' at 8pm on ABC TV and iview.
