2013 Annual Report The end of Alzheimer’s starts with us Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s. On the cover Joyce and Dan Botti are not sitting on the sidelines, despite her diagnosis of early-stage younger-onset Alzheimer’s. (Photo by Shannon Power) It’s personal Dear friends, As the remarkable families profiled in our 2013 Annual Report attest, Alzheimer’s is ultimately a very personal disease, a challenge that millions of families grapple with each and every day. And each of us was personally affected; we each had fathers who lived with Alzheimer’s. All of these stories are representative of millions of other stories. Alzheimer’s is a family disease and the Alzheimer’s Association is completely dedicated to supporting families who today are living with the disease, while leading the global pursuit for meaningful treatments. As part of the nation’s largest and most effective organization dedicated to Alzheimer’s support and research, we are able to simultaneously act locally and globally. In Massachusetts and New Hampshire, 142,000 families are living with Alzheimer’s. As you will read in this report, we are both expanding the scope of our services and developing new and innovative partnerships to provide meaningful support to people living with Alzheimer’s and their care partners. Thanks to the active support of thousands of volunteer advocates we have made important advances with public policy in New Hampshire, Massachusetts and in Washington. We are improving the quality of dementia care and expanding resources for research. We are the movement to put an end to Alzheimer’s and we are growing. Through partnerships with the TJX Companies, Inc., Dunkin’ Donuts, Rapid Refill, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and many others, we are reaching out to employees, customers and the general public to spread our message. Our Walks and other events are attracting tens of thousands of participants. We are literally stepping out to achieve our vision of a World Without Alzheimer’s. 2013 was a record fundraising year. More and more donors have decided to make this cause a priority. We need increased resources to support the growing numbers of families turning to the Association and we need to expand the funds we can dedicate to research. It all comes back to the personal. If you have lived through this disease, or if you know a family living with Alzheimer’s, you understand the impact. We can’t sit back. We need the determination and resilience to join with thousands of others to say clearly that Alzheimer’s disease must be a top priority of our local community, our state and our nation. Thank you for stepping up this year! Kurt PurnellJames Wessler Chair, Board of DirectorsPresident and CEO Letter | 1 Board of Directors Officers Directors Kurt Purnell Chair Thomas A.

Each connection is personal—it affects someone’s life in sometimes practical, sometimes profound ways. In this Report, you can read the highlights of our past year. Numbers alone do not show the depth of relationships that occurs as our staff and volunteers interact with those whom we serve. We hope that this report provides a sense of the true emotion of our work. All that we do is made possible by our donors and supporters. Our initiatives can be captured in three essential efforts: Care, Cause and Cure. We encourage you to learn more about our ongoing and new programs by visiting us at alz.org/MANH. 4 | Highlights Care 24/7 Helpline We responded to more than 10,835 calls, providing information, support and guidance to individuals, family members and professional caregivers. We also offer Helpline online to increase accessibility for those who prefer to interact via the internet. Dementia Care Coordination We completed a pilot program with Tufts Health Plan, providing coordination of services and consultation, free of charge, to their members seeking assistance with dementia. In addition, we launched research-based dementia care collaboration with three Boston hospitals: Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital, Veterans Hospital, and Boston Medical Center, thanks to funding of the Eisenberg Family Trust. Care Consultation Our individualized counseling program provided more than 1,246 consultations at no charge. Through Care Consultation sessions we provide in-depth assistance to families. We utilize phone conferencing and e-mail contact, when appropriate, to make it possible for those at a distance to be involved in family discussions. Programs for Individuals, Families and the Community We reached 14,899 people with support, information and education at our scheduled programs and community events. We translated and presented key education programs into Spanish and Portuguese to expand our reach into diverse communities. More than 200 people attended our annual African American Forum in Boston. In New Hampshire, our annual Care to Cure conference on caregiving and research informed 200 families and professional caregivers on best practices as well as the Alzheimer research landscape. Programs for Professionals More than 3,600 professionals participated in our 110 workshops, programs or conferences. Our Habilitation Training program “Caring for People with Alzheimer’s Disease” is the leading model of dementia care training—we trained 360 health professionals this year. Alzheimer’s Early Detection Alliance Early-Stage Engagement Our national model for corporate collaboration, AEDA benefits employees of participating members. We now have 65 corporate AEDA members in our region for whom we delivered workplace education programs and attended workplace health fairs. Member corporations include The TJX Companies, Inc., State Street Corporation, Tufts Health Plan, Sun Life and EMC. New to the program is the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with its 40,000 employees. A grant from MetLife enabled us to pilot an early-stage engagement program for those recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia. We offered a variety of engagement programs including art discussion, yoga, nutrition, and a walking club. Support Groups We offered 225 mostly volunteer led support groups, providing training and support to the leaders. We also offered specialized groups for those with youngeronset Alzheimer’s (a more rare variation, occurring before age 65); children of a parent with younger-onset; a telephone-based group for individuals who are not able to leave their home or live in remote locations; a mindfulness support group; and a short-term telephone group for those with younger-onset Alzheimer’s. Physician Outreach We significantly escalated our outreach to physicians as a crucial building block to improving the rate of diagnosis of Alzheimer’s from its current low of 50 percent. We conducted outreach to more than 9,800 clinicians, including 640 neurologists, 298 geriatricians, 2,800 primary care physicians and more than 6,000 allied health professionals— representing a 156% increase over the previous year. Highlights | 5 Cause Legislative Initiatives Our public policy agenda comprises proposed legislation to create dementia-capable care in acute care settings; proposed uniform guardianship that will permit guardianship to be recognized across state borders; the Massachusetts Alzheimer Project Act to create a permanent office in the state government; and proposed New Hampshire State Alzheimer Plan to provide a roadmap and coordination for dementia services. Advocates in Action Our Massachusetts Alzheimer’s Advocacy Action Day at the state house in Boston galvanized advocates to promote our public policy agenda. Advocates from New Hampshire and Massachusetts also travelled to Washington, D.C. to meet with their elected officials as part of the annual Public Policy Summit. Nationally, our advocates were responsible for securing support of increased Alzheimer’s research funding at the National Institutes of Health. Massachusetts State Plan Walk to End Alzheimer’s® 2012 Working with the Executive Office of Elder Affairs (EOEA) we created task forces to bring to life the Massachusetts State Plan accepted by Governor Patrick Deval in 2011. Focus areas include dementia care training for health providers and public safety for those with dementia. In the Fall of 2012, a record-breaking 20,000 people across Massachusetts and New Hampshire participated in the Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s program, the nation’s largest effort to raise public awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research. In 2012, $2.6 million was raised by the dedicated Walkers and sponsors of the Alzheimer’s Association MA/NH Chapter. Community Awareness Building We increased Alzheimer awareness in diverse communities by creating Diversity Councils in Springfield, Worcester and Fall River—to guide our planning around programs and outreach. A Purple Sunday at 36 churches in Boston and Springfield reached more than 1,500 people. The national Alzheimer’s Association Public Policy Summit brought more than 1,000 advocates to Washington, D.C., this year including a contingent of more than 30 from Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Shao Hsien, Andy Wojcikowski, John O’Leary, Linda Howrey, and Alan Holbrook (l.-r.) met with Congressman Jim McGovern (2nd District) and our other elected officials to ask for increased funding for Alzheimer’s research. 6 | Highlights Celebrated Chefs from Greater Boston and Portsmouth, NH are raising funds and awareness with Food for Thought at their restaurants during World Alzheimer’s Month, September. Participating in a photo/video shoot to promote Food for Thought were Mark Sapienza, Bond at The Langham Hotel; Jeff Fournier, 51 Lincoln; Dan Raia, Sweet Cheeks Q; Joshua Smith, Moody’s Delicatessen and Provisions; Jacky Robert, Petit Robert; Dante De Magistris, Restaurant dante; Jason Santos, Blue Inc.; Christopher Coombs, Deuvaxe; William Kovel, Catalyst; Tiffany Faison, Sweet Cheeks Q; Evan Mallet, The Black Trumpet Bistro; and Brenden Pelley, Zebra’s Bistro & Wine Bar. (Photo by Shannon Power) Media AlzTogether Our work with The Boston Globe on the overuse and abuse of antipsychotic medications in nursing homes resulted in new proposed legislation to monitor and reduce off-label use of the medications. Overall, we garnered more than 128 million media impressions, an increase of 27% over 2011. A new collaboration with FOX25-TV played a key role as they joined us as a media sponsor of our new RUN TRI RIDE to End Alzheimer’s program. Our young leadership group, AlzTogether, expanded its membership in 2012 and stayed focused on their goal of increasing awareness of Alzheimer’s disease and the Alzheimer’s Association to young adults between the ages of twenty-one and forty. The group organized a series of public awareness and fundraising events geared towards young adults, including a “Night of Light” event, where the top of the Prudential Tower was turned purple in support of the Alzheimer’s cause. The group also launched its first annual Blondes vs. Brunettes flag-football game, which raised over $50,000 in support of the Alzheimer’s Association’s mission. Purple with a Purpose Public Awareness For World Alzheimer’s Day 2012, we teamed up once more with Dunkin’ Donuts. Nearly 1,000 Dunkin’ stores in eastern Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire offered a special purple-sprinkled donut to raise money and awareness and they also distributed 110,000 Alzheimer brochures. Food for Thought Cause Marketing Top Boston area chefs joined together to raise funds and awareness. Celebrated chefs participated in a photo/ video shoot, with the resulting images used in social media; and then for a week in September offered a special appetizer with 100% of the proceeds donated to the cause. As we seek to engage a broader audience and raise awareness of the need to increase research funding, we are expanding our cause marketing initiatives. During the past year, we continued a successful donation program with Rapid Refill service stations in eastern Massachusetts. We also continued a relationship with a micro-brewery, White Birch Beer, in New Hampshire for a time-limited special brew called “Unforgettable” that generated a donation to our RIDE to End Alzheimer’s. We benefitted as well from a national donation program by Subaru. A March donation campaign by Marshalls stores contributed to our national mission fund. Highlights | 7 Cure 2012 Research Grants Five Massachusetts researchers were among those receiving 2012 Alzheimer Association grants for their projects. The Alzheimer’s Association is the largest nonprofit funder of research into causes and treatments, and someday a cure. Since the research program’s inception, $315 million has been invested in innovative research. 2012 RIDE to End Alzheimer’s Our premier cycling event, raising money for research, grew exponentially in 2012, benefitting both from a rebranding (was Memory Ride) as well as media sponsorship from FOX25 TV who produced and aired 138 free promotional spots. More than 425 cyclists participated, bringing the total raised by the RIDE since its inception to more than $1.35 million for research. 22st Annual Matthew & Martha Simons Symposium on Alzheimer’s Disease He’s always been a champion to us, but this year we were thrilled that Steve Hume was named Myra Kraft Community Foundation Community MVP. On hand for Steve’s presentation at Gillette Stadium were Patriots Andre Tippett, Vince Wilfork and Tom Brady. Steve has younger-onset Alzheimer’s and has worked tirelessly to increase public awareness by serving on both the national Alzheimer’s Association and our Chapter’s boards as well as speaking out at public hearings. 8 | Highlights More than 440 people attended our premier scientific presentation and another 285 attended research forums in Concord, NH and Holyoke and Worcester, MA. Dementia: A Comprehensive Update The Chapter was once again the official co-sponsor of the Harvard Medical School’s major annual dementia conference; Chapter staff presented in a plenary session to more than 250 physicians. Alzheimer’s Association International Conference We played a critical role in the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) which was held in July 2013 in Boston. In addition to the gathering of nearly 5,000 of the best and brightest researchers, the programming included a Dementia Care Conference and our annual Research Symposium. For six days, Boston was the international hub for Alzheimer research and our Chapter proudly participated and also presented in poster sessions and workshops. More than 5 million in the U.S. have Alzheimer’s. How do we help people with the disease, and their families?

They met through friends and have been married for 37 years. She went on to earn a teaching degree and he became an automotive consultant. Her first 11 years as a teacher were spent at the elementary school level in New York. After they relocated to Massachusetts, she transitioned to teaching Spanish which she taught for another 11 years. Joyce was diagnosed with younger-onset Alzheimer’s just over a year ago at age 59. The signs were there as she wrote on the board at school and she would write the last letter of a word, erase it and start it over again. A handle confused her…was she supposed to push, or pull it? She left the car running outside the house for two hours. She had trouble with the numbers on students’ exams. And she would stop for her morning coffee at a drive-though, and leave without the coffee. The signs worried Joyce enough that she asked her primary care physician for the name of a neurologist—but she carried the name around for a year, not wanting to make the call. “We saw that something was wrong” Dan said. Talking about Alzheimer’s now, Joyce and Dan have the slight cushion of time, but when he first heard the diagnosis there was shock. Telling their three children was not easy. Joyce wanted to share the news with each of her children separately. So Kevin, Eileen and Anne, all in their early 30s, heard the news one after another on one very long day. It changed things forever for their family. We thank those who opened their homes to us so that the story of Alzheimer’s could be told. Profiles by Betsy Fitzgerald-Campbell Photography by Shannon Power 10 | The Botti family The three adult children sat around the dining room table in the family home to talk about their journey so far. The warm yellow walls and piano off to the side all tell a story of a family life that gave comfort and made sense. Their mother took care of herself, running regularly. She was a model of healthy lifestyle. “It was a weekend when we were all up for a visit,” said Kevin who now lives in Brooklyn. “I didn’t know it was an issue and was taken aback. We talked about it.” Since that day, Kevin stays in touch more; he reads the articles his mother frequently forwards to him. He’s wearing a purple “EndAlz” cause bracelet. I don’t have time to fear for myself The Botti family | 11 as much as I do for mom and dad “There’s no way we can keep up with it all,” said Anne who lives the nearest and has two children of her own. “We do keep up-to-date with what we can do to help. I had some difficulty with the news at first because I see her often. I asked are you sure?” “I found myself looking for more information, but there’s little on this phenomenon of younger-onset Alzheimer’s,” said Eileen who also lives in Brooklyn. Eileen did find and read the Shriver Report, by Maria Shriver, which details the impact of Alzheimer’s on women. Eileen had more firsthand experience but that hasn’t made her mother’s diagnosis any easier. “I worked for a year on an Alzheimer’s floor; there was always a fear for my grandparents but I didn’t expect to have it with the younger generation, with my parent,” said Eileen. Are they worried that they too might face a similar diagnosis some day? “I don’t have time to fear for myself as much as I do for mom and dad five years ahead,” said Anne. Sharing her story with her children was just the beginning for Joyce. “I got my hands on everything I could read,” she said. “I looked up support groups and found one through the Association run by Peter Ham” (Peter has since become the Vice President of Programs & Services at the Massachusetts/New Hampshire Chapter). Those visits to support groups were difficult because Joyce was so early in the disease process and she was seeing what was down the road for her. Dan did not attend; Joyce was glad that he wasn’t there. “I kept going to support group because there’s always something you can glean.” When she heard about the South Shore Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which was also on her birthday in 2012, she asked her children to get involved with her. The act of doing something motivated them all. Unfortunately in 2012, the South Shore Walk in Plymouth experienced torrential rain. Kevin and his girlfriend still went; the rest of the family sent in their donations and stayed dry. They signed up again in 2013 and had perfect weather. Joyce also signed up, with Dan, to attend the national Public Policy Forum in Washington, D.C. this year. Along with more than 1,000 others, they heard speakers talk about the impact of Alzheimer’s on our country. They also met face-to-face with their congressman, Representative Bill Keating, to enlist his support for the cause. “When they showed the facts and figures video, with the different amounts allocated for research for different disease, I was shocked,” Joyce said. Alzheimer’s is not the first major disease to hit the Botti family. Kevin had lymphoma at the age of 29. “Kevin is fine now, but I have to tell him that I have something that can’t be cured,” Joyce said. 12 | The Botti family five years ahead. Though there is no cure, Joyce is living life as fully as she knows how. She is involved in activities through the Association and was recently named to the national Alzheimer’s Association Early Stage Advisory Board and to the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts/ New Hampshire Chapter. She volunteers with elder services and takes care of her grandchildren two days a week. “They say do everything you can do—get together with friends,” said Dan. “She has a social core of friends, and they know about her diagnosis.” He has not yet shared her diagnosis with his work colleagues, though he sees that happening in the future. “If it becomes in the way of my work, I’ll need to explain.” They are early in the course of the disease. Joyce still drives. She runs a couple of miles every day and does aerobic exercise. She’s joined a new support group. They are thinking about downsizing from their large colonial home. Tackling her diagnosis head-on has become an important part of her life. “I am happy to be able to change the face of the disease,” Joyce said. The Botti family | 13 Corporate Support The TJX Companies, Inc. In February 2013, The TJX Companies, Inc., headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts, announced a multi-year pledge of $1 million in recognition of the massive impact of Alzheimer’s disease worldwide. This pledge was the second $1 million gift from TJX, which it has made on behalf of its Associates and retail divisions that include T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods and Sierra Trading Post in the U.S.; Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls in Canada, and TK Maxx and HomeSense in Europe. As part of the pledge, TJX also became a Presenting Sponsor of the Promise Garden, which serves as the emotional centerpiece of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s events around the country. Carol Meyrowitz, TJX’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am so pleased that TJX’s support of the Alzheimer’s Association will continue as the Association strives to fulfill its vision of a world without Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s painfully affects millions of people, not only those who suffer from the disease, but their families and caregivers as well. It has been over two years since we announced our global partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association and during that time, so many of our Associates have taken the time to share their personal stories with me. We are optimistic that other companies will join us in our support of this important cause and that fewer people will suffer from the impact of this terminal disease.” Since making its initial pledge, TJX has become a Champion of the Alzheimer’s Early Detection Alliance, helping to foster awareness about the disease and spread recognition of the early warning signs. To that end, Ms. Meyrowitz hosted an Alzheimer’s Early Detection Alliance event in 2012 in which executives from over 45 companies convened to learn more about the disease and how the business community can marshal its resources to build awareness. TJX Associates also back our cause. Associates regularly support the Walk to End Alzheimer’s and in 2012, a group of over 400 TJX Associates signed up to participate in the Walk, fielding over 30 teams across the country and collectively raising thousands of dollars for our cause. In 2013, Marshalls store Associates in the U.S. conducted a “Give a Dollar” campaign, which allowed customers to make a donation in support of the Alzheimer’s Association upon checkout. In addition to TJX’s support of the Alzheimer’s Association nationally, the Company has been a good neighbor here in Massachusetts as well. Since 2010, TJX has illuminated its corporate headquarters buildings – located right off the Mass Turnpike – in purple lights during the month of September to raise awareness for World Alzheimer’s month. The Company also hosts lunch’n’learn sessions to educate its Associates on detection and caregiver-related topics. 14 | Corporate Support Our Chapter honored TJX for its dedication and contribution to our cause at our inaugural Hope on the Harbor celebration in June 2013, and we are pleased to be featuring TJX in our 2013 Corporate Sponsor Profile.

Originally a marketing major, she took a new direction and earned a degree in occupational therapy from Boston University. ”My grandmother had dementia and it made me think about the other side of world from marketing. I loved the combination of medical and psychiatric issues,” she said. Suzanne took a job at Spaulding Rehab, followed by one at Wingate-Needham. At that time, she had a career that was meaningful; she also became the mother of twin girls. By then, her father had already been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. “Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at 65. He was living in New York, on Long Island, and I felt helpless. I was working and could not go back and forth to help.” As her twin daughters, Julia and Sarah, turned 2 ½, she found a new calling. She trained as a volunteer counselor on the Association’s 24/7 Helpline and began working a weekly shift, helping people navigate the challenges of Alzheimer’s and dementia. “It was a perfect fit. And I also used the Association to help my mother out, to get her help. But Helpline was more for me to be able to help others—I felt helpless with my own father.” Helpline for Suzanne, as it does for all the counselors, brought a wide range of experiences. “I didn’t know what it would be like, but I was getting an array of calls Some made me cry. Some made me angry. The hardest ones were family members looking for an easy way out. It was frustrating because I knew that some people with Alzheimer’s weren’t going to get the care they needed.” Though her experience as an occupational therapist prepared her somewhat, Suzanne found that volunteering was emotionally hard. “There are no easy answers with Alzheimer’s. All the calls were hard in their own way.” I was getting an array of calls. Some made me cry. Suzanne Lissy | 29 For five years, Suzanne volunteered at the 24/7 Helpline, assisting the Association staff at the Watertown headquarters. And her own family’s story was not unlike those she heard while she was helping others. Though her father, Don Schulman, was diagnosed at 65, the disease had taken hold earlier. A high-performer who ran his own company, he had managed to hide the early signs from the family. Car accidents were written off, as were times when he became lost. By the time he was tested, Suzanne’s father was in mid-stage Alzheimer’s. He remained at that stage for two-three years but then went downhill quickly. In perfect health, except for Alzheimer’s, Suzanne’s father lost his ability to walk, then speak, over a five-year period. For the full course of the disease, he was cared for at home with the assistance of professional caregivers. “My mother was alone. Even though she was not widowed, it was just very hard. Every stage was hard.” And it was all made harder because the family did not tell others about the diagnosis. “We told nobody. I was crying every day and had no place to go—because of the stigma. When I let go of that, it changed everything. When we began to tell people, they said oh that makes sense. You tell people it’s the disease, not your loved one— then they can understand.” “My biggest loss is that my father missed out on that whole next phase of our lives. He missed seeing me become a mother, he a grandfather.” In a twist of irony, her son Dylan was born on her father’s birthday, four months after his passing. “Alzheimer’s changed our whole dynamic. We were close, and then he was gone.” She has turned her loss into a personal campaign to make a difference. First with Helpline, then being named to the Chapter’s Leadership Council, and then joining the Board of Directors. She also joined the Night at the Pops committee, helping for many years to raise money and awareness through that special event. From her summer home on the Cape and year-round home in Needham she works the phone, bringing others into cause. The “Don Schulman Forget-Me-Nots” are at the Greater Boston Walk each year, honoring her father and fighting back at the disease that took so much from Suzanne and her family. Suzanne has become a resource to friends to are dealing with Alzheimer’s in their own families. Some made me angry. The hardest ones 30 | Suzanne Lissy “Whenever I hear that someone has it, it pulls a heartstring. Alzheimer’s is unique because the family gets hit as hard or harder.” Her years as a Helpline counselor have made her an advocate for managing the disease, with help. Her own family had the resources for a full-time companion and at-home care. She knows that is not the case for most, so she offers her own checklist: Stay two steps ahead. Awareness is the key. Ask Donate for help. time and money and get involved. Suzanne’s own commitment echoes through her family. Her husband of 22 years, David, is at her side at Alzheimer’s Association events like Hope on the Harbor. Her sister has organized a Walk team as well. And her daughters, who have grown up with their mother’s dedication, arranged for the Association to benefit from a school fundraiser. “The Board is definitely a priority for me. I think I can make a difference as a family member. It seems like the right thing to do.” Her hope: “I wish we could just get to the point where people could live with it.” were people looking for an easy way out.

Together, they are experts in a number of fields of endeavor— most recently, unfortunately, they have added Alzheimer’s to their experiences. Meg (Margaret) Chalmers earned a five year nursing degree from Columbia University and then went on to earn a Masters and EdD. Her plan was to teach nursing. Her last teaching job was in the Berkshires, teaching LPN students at a community college; she went on to serve as director of nursing at a Lennox Life Care Community and part-time nurse coordinator at Jacob’s Pillow dance festival. Judy Young and Meg Chalmers New Hampshire Judy L. Young is an RN who earned a MSCS with a clinical specialty in psychiatric nursing and is trained to treat and prescribe for psychiatric conditions. She met Meg in New York City where they were both involved in a public health outreach program. Once in the Berkshires, she worked in community mental health and a program for suicidal borderline women. Then they up and changed direction. They had owned a summer house on Cape Cod. In their early 50s, they relocated to the Cape and began a second career in the antiques business. They specialized in Mission Period furniture, but then fell in love with a Boston Arts and Crafts Period school of pottery called Saturday Evening Girls. A training program for young immigrant girls, the program produced works of art now sought out by collectors. They were a great team. “Meg was a phenomenal salesperson and she was the happy person that they got a hug from,” Judy said. Judy’s sales acumen and Meg’s hugs resulted in $4 million in pottery sales over the years. Visiting with them at their home on a pond in New Hampshire, the first order of business is a quick viewing of some of their favorite pottery pieces. They have downsized considerably, but favorites, all small, reside on shelves around their cozy cottage. With nature themes, farm animals, and some with pithy sayings, the pieces are like the two women themselves—direct and full of a natural, shining energy. “At first, it was like an addiction. We found out that we could buy things and then sell them at a profit,” said Meg with a smile. “It was like a miracle.” 48 | Judy Young and Meg Chalmers That miracle rolled on as they traveled around the country, buying and selling at antiques fairs and shows. From Florida to California, they did up to twenty highend shows a year. “It was exhausting but energizing,” said Judy. They built a website, courtesy of Meg’s computer skills. Before long, they were invited by Schiffler publishing to The only good thing they said was to contact the Alzheimer’s Association Judy Young and Meg Chalmers | 49 write a definitive collector’s book. In 2005, Schiffler published The Saturday Evening Girls: Paul Revere Pottery—which has pride of place now on a coffee table in their living room. Then the changes began. Meg was having trouble remembering things. A computer expert with a mind for science, she began to realize that something was wrong. Tested once by her primary care physician, then again four months later by another, she was overwhelmed. A CT-scan showed only age-related changes in her brain. A psychiatrist wanted to rule out clinical depression, but no mood disorders were evident. Then finally after neuro­psychological tests, came a diagnosis. She understood and could help. 50 | Judy Young and Meg Chalmers “The doctor saw us together for five minutes—he said it was early Alzheimer’s and we were totally shocked,” said Judy. Meg went on Aricept, which can be useful in the early stages of dementia. That was May 2012. Meg was 73. “The only good thing they said was to contact the Alzheimer’s Association,” said Meg. She and Judy set up a care consultation with Ronda Randazzo from the Association’s Bedford, New Hampshire office. “She was somebody who understood what it meant to me, to Judy. “She understood and could help.” The two women who have managed two successful careers both become somber when talking about life now. When they closed down their antiques business, they had moved to their dream house on the pond in New Hampshire and had changes made to create the perfect retirement spot. A picture window at the foot of their bed looks out across still, placid water. They kayak when weather permits; they have two families of ducks that live beneath their back porch. They have a second home in Florida so that they can escape the cold winters. It was all supposed to be perfect. We are going to live life fully and in the moment. “I have to ask questions a lot. I try to keep active, but it’s sad.” Meg became quieter as she talked about life now. “Meg is proactive and she has a lot of cognitive reserve,” Judy said. “But she is very aware of her losses, which is difficult. We are both grieving.” “We used to take care of Alzheimer patients and would see people at the end stage. That’s what I would think about and it’s hard,” Meg said. Both her mother and an uncle also died with Alzheimer’s, Less than a year after the diagnosis, Judy and Meg decided to attend the Association’s national Public Policy Forum in Washington, D.C. With more than 1,000 other advocates, they took to Capitol Hill to tell the story of their experience, hoping to convince legislators to back additional funding for Alzheimer research. Judy has also joined a telephone support group that the Association runs for those who are unable to find a local group to attend or are unable to leave their house because of caregiving or other restrictions. “I feel strongly that there needs to be more support groups and activities for people in the early stage of the disease,” said Meg. “We’re 1 ¾ hours from anywhere,” Judy said. “But every little thing we do with the Alzheimer’s Association gives us a little bit of something.” They also took part in the Manchester Walk to End Alzheimer’s this September. “We feel like it’s not fair—but it never is,” said Judy. “We are going to live life fully and in the moment. Our motto is don’t postpone joy.” For this moment, life on a pond with ducklings is good.
