Video - Daniel's story about his early testing and diagnosis of Alzheimers disease
Daniel lives in Stockholm, Sweden, and was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease when he was still in his early 50's. In this 6-minute video we follow Daniel and his wife Sophia.
We listen to their story from the first symptoms and suspicion, through biomarker testing and diagnosis and to today, where Daniel and Sophia and their family live with the disease. And we hear about their hopes for the future.
