Worldwide, there are over 55 million people who have been diagnosed with some form of dementia. Whether it is Alzheimer's, Lewy-body, vascular, mild cognitive impairment, or another type, each of these individuals is more than their diagnosis. They are a person with a rich, vibrant history, and people who love them. It is because of this that Before the Diagnosis: More Stories of Life and Love Before Dementia was written. Continuing in the style of Before the Diagnosis: Stories of Life and Love Before Dementia, the stories of the 23 individuals in this book introduce us to more people with a life worth remembering. In the pages of this book, some of the people you'll meet are a well-loved teacher, a shop owner, a good gift-giver, cyclists, parents, spouses, an acupuncturist, a family physician, a marathoner, and an artistic storyteller. Two women who were both young when they were diagnosed with a type of dementia wrote positively about their lives since their diagnoses, with their first-hand accounts bookending the other essays. We all need to remember that people with any type of diagnosis, whether it is a form of dementia or something else entirely, are so much more than their diagnosis. They are people. Remind people they are so much more than a medical condition. Find out about people. Share their story, and share yours as well. I hope you are touched by what you read on the pages of this book. Your purchase of this book supports the work of Alzheimer's Orange County since 100% of the sales of the book are donated to them. You can find out more about the work they do at www.alzoc.org.

This book is a love story and a labor of love. It is an anthology of stories by 36 authors, each about a relative they have known and loved before that person was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or another type of dementia. First and foremost, these stories are about human beings. They are about moms, dads, attorneys, teachers, sailors, dreamers, doers, and lovers. They are about people like you and me; people with hopes and plans for the future who lived, or are still living, a life worth remembering. I hope what you read in these pages touches your life.

Imagine yourself going into the lab for a routine blood test one day and being diagnosed with an incurable and terminal cancer the next. Imagine yourself reeling from the shocking news that you are going to become very ill, and then you are going to die. Now imagine that, along with the terminal diagnosis, you have been granted an extended time during which you will not be affected by the rare cancer. Essentially, you will be symptom-free for a long time, perhaps even years. This is exactly what happened to Adolfo Quezada, the author of Before the Night Comes: Living in the Light of a Terminal Diagnosis. This book is a personal account of his response to this unusual diagnosis and prognosis. Quezada, a 75-year-old retired therapist, writes poignantly about the spiritual and psychological effects the diagnosis has had on his life. He considers the prelude to the illness and death a gift that allows him time to seek depth and authenticity in his life, and to grow as a person in the time he has left to live. He calls it "a due date with a grace period." In addition to a journal that Quezada kept in the months following the diagnosis, the book includes chapters on assumptions, gratitude, choices, fulfillment, living, surrender, and dying. The book, which has a spiritual element running through it, offers hope and inspiration to those who have been diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness, or whose loved ones have. Quezada's words are relevant for, and pertinent to, anyone who is living in the prelude to death.

Getting the right diagnosis is a key aspect of health care - it provides an explanation of a patient's health problem and informs subsequent health care decisions. The diagnostic process is a complex, collaborative activity that involves clinical reasoning and information gathering to determine a patient's health problem. According to Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, diagnostic errors-inaccurate or delayed diagnoses-persist throughout all settings of care and continue to harm an unacceptable number of patients. It is likely that most people will experience at least one diagnostic error in their lifetime, sometimes with devastating consequences. Diagnostic errors may cause harm to patients by preventing or delaying appropriate treatment, providing unnecessary or harmful treatment, or resulting in psychological or financial repercussions. The committee concluded that improving the diagnostic process is not only possible, but also represents a moral, professional, and public health imperative. Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, a continuation of the landmark Institute of Medicine reports To Err Is Human (2000) and Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001), finds that diagnosis-and, in particular, the occurrence of diagnostic errorsâ€"has been largely unappreciated in efforts to improve the quality and safety of health care. Without a dedicated focus on improving diagnosis, diagnostic errors will likely worsen as the delivery of health care and the diagnostic process continue to increase in complexity. Just as the diagnostic process is a collaborative activity, improving diagnosis will require collaboration and a widespread commitment to change among health care professionals, health care organizations, patients and their families, researchers, and policy makers. The recommendations of Improving Diagnosis in Health Care contribute to the growing momentum for change in this crucial area of health care quality and safety.

'Some days all I want to do is give up the constant, exhausting struggle and stop trying to be normal. But I can't. It's not in me to walk away from a fight. I'll keep fighting and telling my story. Before I forget.' When she was just 46, Christine Bryden - science advisor to the prime minister and single mother of three daughters - was diagnosed with younger-onset dementia. Doctors told her to get her affairs in order as she would soon be incapable of doing so. Twenty years later she is still thriving, still working hard to rewire her brain even as it loses its function. The unusually slow progress of her condition puts Christine in a unique position to describe the lived experience of dementia, a condition affecting tens of millions of people worldwide. In this revealing memoir, she looks back on her life in an effort to understand how her brain - once her greatest asset, now her greatest challenge - works now. She shares what it's like to start grasping for words that used to come easily. To be exhausted from visiting a new place. To suddenly realise you don't remember how to drive. To challenge, every day, the stereotype of the 'empty shell'. Brave and inspiring, this is Christine's legacy for people with dementia and those who care about them. 'Christine teaches us that we are more than what our brains are capable of remembering, that while we can still breathe and love, we all have something important to contribute to this world.' Lisa Genova, author of bestseller Still Alice
