We invite you to take a moment to check out this great synopsis of some initial steps folks can take after receiving a diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment. That can be a time where it's common to feel overwhelmed and unsure what to do next. Unlike conditions with clear-cut medical treatments, many people feel adrift after the flurry of appointments has died down and a diagnosis is confirmed. We think the staff who created the article below did a great job of highlighting the key "action items" to be aware of.

I DO have ADHD!! I love my creativity, outgoing personality, joy for living, learning new things and being all I can be in life. I am 77 and still moving like I was 40. I bike, swim, walk, hike, and do a set of 20 PT exercises 3-5 times a week. Age IS just a number.
