79 year old Sam Simon could tell that his memory was fading and finally was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease. Faced with this, Sam has dedicated himself to awareness of what Alzheimer's is, how it makes you feel, and how you could and should embrace people experiencing this incurable disease.
Sam started his career in Washington, DC as a lawyer for Ralph Nader’s first advocacy group. He then spent 25 years as head of a public affairs firm. In that work, he was often in the news, with appearances on Face The Nation, Phil Donahue Show, Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, and many more. His first play, The Actual Dance, Love’s Ultimate Journey Through Breast Cancer, has toured from 2013 to the present. In 2021 The Actual Dance was turned into an award-winning biography. His new play is called Dementia man.
On this episode of Home Care Heroes and Day Service Stars, Sam performs a preview, that he calls the "Showcase Version" of Dementia Man and then answers questions about his experience and the show.
