"You could’ve knocked me off my chair. It was like time stood still." Jim Rogers was blindsided by his diagnosis of younger onset Alzheimer’s disease in his 50s. He didn’t see a dementia diagnosis coming, and yet it changed almost everything. The way you sleep, exercise, travel around, and even how you interact with your loved ones will change after a diagnosis. So how do you even start to process all these changes? On Hold the Moment, you’re not alone. Join Jim and his co-host, journalist and broadcaster Hamish Macdonald whose father has dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson’s, as they learn how people with dementia are managing their changing circumstances. We’ll also bring in a few experts along the way for advice on the especially tricky stuff, like getting your legal affairs in order. Follow Hold the Moment wherever you get your podcasts so you don’t miss an episode. And share it with anyone you know who has a dementia diagnosis or who knows someone who does.   +++  Hold the Moment is a podcast from Dementia Australia, produced by Deadset Studios and hosted by Jim Rogers and Hamish Macdonald.
