Trilogy
Blue. River. Apple.
The tale of Blue.River.Apple. trilogy grew from a diagnosis of early on-set Alzheimer’s and years later, a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment. It now has been 12 plus years of poetry written depicting cognitive changes. All the while, my fingers fly across a yellow, blue-lined tablet, usually between 3:00 to 5:00a.m. still today. I want to give credit and acknowledgement that my poetry is empowered by someone far greater than Nancy Nelson (aka “dangle”).
I am honored and pleased to bring my stories to you. And just think! What if.. you and I exchanged ideas and thoughts and those new insights help each of us through a new lens of understanding? Communication is a valuable tool.
It’s bound to elevate the perception of dementia overall, weaving in hope and ownership of how-to live one’s own life better for longer, whether you are a person living with or a person caring for, someone diagnosed.
