Hi 👋🏼We've given you a lot of content -- from stories to a podcast to an event -- on Alzheimer's disease in the past week. It's a lot and you might have missed some of it, so here's a rundown of our series "Mourning the Living."

First the stories:

Alzheimer's has weaved its way through two, maybe three, generations of the Sanchez family. Read how within a year, two parents became the next to be diagnosed with the disease: dpo.st/2PqWEc4

Alzheimer’s disease has made Tony forget before, but one day seven months ago, he got his first glimpse of a future without his memories.

Read how Tony is putting up a fight against the disease as it robs him of his memories and independence: dpo.st/2DzLcUj

The five siblings in the Sanchez family have seen Alzheimer's take two grandparents, a great-aunt, and, possibly a great-grandmother. Now, it has their parents in its grasp.

Listen to the podcast about the series and how it was reported: dpo.st/2G1Qedi

Finally, I am lucky to work for a newspaper that is willing & able to invest in such in-depth journalism. I could not have done these stories if my editors hadn't given me the time to report and write.
