• Who are you? my mother asked me again. It was
  the third time in twenty minutes, and a regular
  ritual during my visits to the nursing home in
  the last months of her life in 1994.
• Alzheimers. They say its hereditary.  I
  remember thinking is that whats going to happen
  to me? Will I get Alzheimers too?

5

• Even if I manage to avoid that dreaded disease,
  will I deteriorate mentally and physically in
  other ways with age? Will I begin to lose
  strength and ?exibility as my joints creak and my
  bones thin? Will I become set in my ways and
  in?exible in my thinking? Will I have to stay
  cooped up in the house, afraid of slipping and
  tripping?

• As I advance in years, will my mind become less
  clear, less sharp, until I cant remember what
  day it is, who my children are, or even who I am?

• It was five years after Mom died, when I was in
  my early 60s that the symptoms of early
  Alzheimers did enter my life. It started out as
  minor short-term memory losses and not being able
  to find words I wanted to say. Then it progressed
  to greater memory loss I wouldnt ask a question
  because I couldnt remember if I had just asked
  it. And my tongue kept tripping on words.

• It was extremely frightening. For me and my
  children. They insisted I go to the doctor for
  testing, but the test in the late 1990s was a
  series of questions the doctor asked the patient
  like, What year is it? and Who is president of
  the United States?I aced them all but
  regardless I knew my mind was deteriorating.

11

• Then when I was 67 years old, I had a wake-up
  call and became aware of what I was doing to
  myself. Even through the fog of early
  Alzheimers, I began to realize that my thoughts
  and beliefs were creating a life for me that I
  did not want.

• Who am I? My mothers last words to me were more
  profound than I realized at the time. Even though
  I knew that I am a spiritual being experiencing
  life in a physical body, it wasnt until ten
  years after her death that I became conscious
  that I have a choice about who I am going to be
  in this physical body in my later years.

14

• Let me say that once more. Its a simple, quiet
  intention, but one that has made a world of
  difference to me I choose how I will spend the
  rest of my life.
• All my adult life Ive searched and studied and
  applied the ancient esoteric secrets for creating
  the life I want. Why not, I realized, use that
  same wisdom to turn my back on Alzheimers and
  develop a program for a clear mind and strong
  body for the rest of my life?

• Why not think and grow young? Why not use the Law
  of Attraction and other age-reversing techniques
  to give me vitality, stamina, ?exibility, love,
  creativity, exuberance, a sharp mind and a strong
  body?

17

• Once I had a clear intention to reverse aging,
  the next step was to learn how. Soon a whole
  program, including youthfulness techniques for
  the body, started to emerge and I began making
  those mind body spirit practices into habits.

• It worked! The results were so astounding, I had
  to share this program. It reversed my early
  stages of Alzheimers (In 2010 I tested positive
  for the APO-e4 Alzheimers gene), gave me tons
  more energy and kept breast cancer from recurring.

20

• I felt it was my purpose to help society change
  its views of what life can be in our later years.
  Were living longer and I had found a way to make
  the extended life a more dynamic and joyful
  experience. How could I not share it?
• And so I did. That was the birth of my first
  book, Think and Grow Young.
