ABOUT THE AUTHOR Lisa Marshall was the primary caregiver for her husband Peter Marshall who was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s in 2018 at the age of 53. Lisa retired in 2020 from a professional sales career to care for her husband who could no longer be alone. Peter passed away on December 26th, 2021, just three years and eight months after diagnosis. He was 56. She is passionate about advocating for support for caregivers and raises her voice to create awareness of the disease. For over three years she chronicled her and Peter’s daily journey at www.facebook.com/ohhelloalzheimers offering an honest, realistic, and raw look at Alzheimer’s disease, to followers all over the world. She is also a contributing author of Chicken Soup for the Soul: Navigating Elder Care and Dementia. Her chapter depicts just one of the many sad nuances of Alzheimer’s. Lisa and Peter’s journey has been covered on CNN, The Washington Post, Today.com, CBS Evening News, On the Road with Steve Hartman, People.com, and more. Continuing her passion, she holds virtual Alzheimer’s discussions with followers, offering her insight, tips, and coping skills. Participants discuss their own unique stories and realize a sense of community together in a safe space. She works with companies that offer continuing education credits to medical professionals helping them to understand the disease. Lisa shares tips she’s learned to help professional caregivers cope which ultimately helps their Alzheimer’s patients. Lisa works closely with the Alzheimer’s Association and led a team with Walk to End Alzheimer’s helping fund research to find a cure. Her team was the largest fundraising team in CT in 2021, raising more than $55,000. When Lisa isn’t writing, she spends time with her family. She has three grown children, two stepchildren, and two grandsons who she babysits whenever she can. Additionally, she enjoys a very active life hiking, swimming in the neighborhood lake, going to the beach, visiting with friends, traveling, and gardening. Lisa practices meditation and vibrates positive energy and love to everyone she meets. Her mantra is to find joy in life and live each day with no regrets.
