    CBC Radio on More Awareness About Alzheimer’s & Dementia Disease

    3 years ago Health & Wellness, ScienceYep

    Date on Radio 22/1/2018

    Thank you Stephen for speaking up about those struggling with Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease today, on CBC radio.  

    I really wanted to tell you that my mother admired you for your courage and thank you for letting her know, that is okay to be this new person and embrace herself. And to not let herself get down because of this disease. That’s why I called. However, I got so nervous and my mom was so giggling next to me. Anyways, Stephen if you get to read this, my mother and I appreciated your courage today.

    The Emission today was about Alzheimer’s symptoms and recent studies, how people suffering from the disease are perceived by others, how to deal and families coping mechanisms.

    This was very enlighten, and interesting story for my mom and I to hear today. Me and my mother were doing some exercise when my husband called to listen to the radio. So i’m glad we did.

    “Angie, from Montreal” was me, my mother’s eldest daughter. I called the radio not only for my mom who presently suffers at a young age (early-onset Alzheimer’s) and progressing. But also, because I saw how happy she felt to feel that she’s not alone in all of this. She was diagnosed 3 years ago as well, like Steve.

    We love when they ask Steve: “What’s your message you want to tell the audience today? Out of this experience, what you want to tell others that you expect of them? He said: ” I want them to treat me the same… I want to be treated with dignity and respect. Just because I forget that doesn’t mean I don’t know when people are speaking about me behind my back. I know, they know I’m different. But, having Alzheimer’s doesn’t mean is the end. It’s just another part, or level in my life. The disease shouldn’t put us down; on the contrary we should embrace and rise because of it.” 

    When my mother’s heard this, (I translated in Spanish) her face light up. Out of the three languages that my mother used to know and speak. Only her first language, Spanish remains.  She suffers with heavy anxiety attacks and intense depression episodes within minutes. Then, after 20 or 30 minutes is back to being okay again. This we have come to see it as the “Gap”, which it happens midday. Then, real sundown starts at around 4pm. Which is the same reaction as the “Gap” only the wave stays for longer periods of time. Her antidotes so far has being her medication to slow down the disease, anxiety pills (low doses) and her husband (her caregiver).

    It was very helpful that the Doctor, neurologist was there to explaining in more detail what its going on in the brain activity. As well, he mentioned the recent studies and where they are in terms of finding the cause of Alzheimer’s disease. Plaques and Tangles are found in many research papers I’ve been researching too, however, nothing is proven to be completely accurate yet.  

    Thank you Shawn Apel for having us and CBC Radio  for making more awareness about Alzheimer’s disease and supporting the community and its Caregivers 😉

This is huge! As a Dominican environmentalists @angiem_ao and someone who grew up around this area. Seen this 😭brought tears of joy! Also swipe left, 🤗 I’m sure this is a collective joy and a sign of hope for those who live around this river . 

The Ozama River is heavily polluted. It is constantly affected by the slums on its shores and the factories that dump their waste into it. It is one of the main causes of pollution on the coastline of Santo Domingo. One of the many reason I’ve decided to be an #enviromentalscientist 

It’s also one of the areas most affected right now with COVID-19 😔

So grateful @boyanslat and @theoceancleanup 🌻 for the work you do in keeping our 🌎 oceans clean and making sure that areas of the most marginalized communities living near rivers or the beach have less pollution = cleaner, educate locals which creates more sustainable conscious communities for the future generations. ✊🏾#betheexampleyouwanttosee 🌻

p.s: suggestions Samana is another city where 🐋 go to give birth every year. This area is heavily polluted too last time I was there. It will help to clean up so those mamas and their babies are healthy and less plastic in their stomachs 🙏🏽🐋💚

    #simplereminders 🌎 This “has no value “unde #simplereminders 🌎 This “has no value “under capitalism also goes to: 

 ❣️social and environmental Justice, indigenous rights, BLM, Trans, Latinos, LGBTQ+, Muslim, Asians, Jews, Arabic people, people living with disabilities, homeless, people dealing with mental illnesses, children, marginalized communities, parents with children w disabilities, women of color, BIPOC communities living in marginalized places. Essential workers, teachers, people delivering, groceries clerks, people living in apartments in horrible conditions but their lives are considered “non-essential “ by the system therefore cannot afford to move, nurses who work other jobs plus saving life’s in hospitals... any more to add to these list? 🤔

THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE. WITH REAL. STORIES. 

#environmentalracism exist because of capitalism and white supremacy.  OUR SUFFERING, OPPRESSION AND TRAUMAS DURING A WORLD PANDEMIC ARE NOT A CONSPIRACY. 😒

That’s why we need to work on abolition. Also, #abolishthepolice and #fundthecommunity ✊🏾

People who don’t have jobs and can’t afford housing and mental health support should be able to get these for free. What do you think 💭? 

We need to STOP shaming people who are suffering right now instead of helping any way you can. 

There are literally people comfortable in their home with everything paid for them. Shaming accounts who are voicing THE TRUTH and commenting “they deserve what they get” 🤬

White privilege also is rooted from capitalism and instead of using your privilege for good. You are being violent and creating more #inequality while most of us are trying to break this mental insanity created by greedy colonizers which most of these descended people are highly benefiting from. 

We need to do better people. Because our lives 🌎 depends on it. 

Stay safe and conscious 💚🌻

And save so you can send it to someone with privilege who says “they deserve it “ or “it is their fault” or the usual I hear everyone say to me when I speak about this. “You’re too much”, “stop caring so much” 🙄 “that’s not your problem. Why do you drain your energy on things that are not your concern anymore?” “You’re not homeless anymore are you?” 

Yeah, that’s still a racial trauma I’m still working on healing and working really hard so I don’t end up in the streets again. 🙏🏽grateful for my family, friends and you 🌹 who are helping me so I can continue this work.

However, there are many people who don’t have family or friends to help them. Imagine being homeless through this winter and dealing with #policebrutality everyday. 

Yep, let that sink in. 

Very soon through the new website 💚🙏🏽 going to show you why it matters to care and help others. 🌻

We still are NOT going to just stay silent because it makes people uncomfortable 😒 Nah, they matter as much as all of us and f$&^ billionaires and toxic patriarchy leaders. 

Watch out for those who gaslight, shame and blame yours or other BIPOC traumatic experiences. They are highly privileged, greedy people who benefit a lot from inequality and capitalism. 🤮

    Most of us are still processing and healing racial Most of us are still processing and healing racial trauma and the shock of seen white supremacy and racism at work on January 6,2020 in the US. 

However, just because is uncomfortable and seen the truth plus the reality that POC are dealing on a daily basis. Now, at night during lockdown “curfew” in Montreal, Quebec 🤦🏽‍♀️ 
we must speak about important matters. We don’t want to deal with bigger problems down the line. 

Just like MLK 🖤✊🏾once said: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."

RP @climatestrikecanada ✊🏾💚
 “from @wearenorth99 if we’re ever going to have climate justice, we must acknowledge the racist origins of the proud boys in so called “Canada” and how they continue to contribute to white supremacy across this land.” 

This is something we are already experiencing in Quebec, Montreal with our white supremacist, racist and white privileged leaders. Their actions and decisions are really detrimental and silent violence that only people who are in the front line, essential workers, teachers, children, BIPOC communities, Women of color, Parents, Trans, LGBTQ+, homeless people and elderly are suffering the most. I would not be surprised these leaders of this city are very supportive of these groups. Stay conscious and pay attention. 🌻

We must not stay silent #canadians don’t think that what happen in the US cannot happen here. And they’re counting on your silence and complicit so they can continue their toxic behaviours. It has to end and it ends with all of us, not just some of us.
