EP 100 :: Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) :: Susan Dickinson

Susan Dickinson, MSGC, is the CEO of the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD). A genetic counselor, she brings more than three decades of experience facilitating communications among lay, scientific, and medical communities.   FTD is the most common form of dementia for people under age 60. It represents a group of brain disorders caused by degeneration of the frontal and/or temporal lobes of the brain.   “The experienced caregivers and care partners are the experts on day-to-day management of any form of dementia and the ability for them to come together with people who are ahead of you on this journey or who have walked the path before is incredibly valuable.” Susan explains.   Don't forget to follow, download, and review to share your thoughts about the show!   To find out more about Bobbi and Mike or the inspiration behind this podcast, Rodger That, head over to rodgerthat.show. ***************************************** Rodger That is produced by Missing Link—a podcast media company that is dedicated to connecting people to intelligent, engaging and informative content.   Also in the Missing Link line-up of podcasts, is The Designated Drinker Show —a high-spirited show featuring craft cocktails and lively banter with the people who create (and quaff) them.   Now, if you are looking for a whole new way to enjoy the theatre, check out Between Acts—an immersive audio theatre podcast experience.
