Autorenporträt
Kathleen is a retired Radiologic Technologist. This is her first book, a memoir inspired by her journey with getting diagnosed with a debilitating disorder Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH). This condition is often confused with early onset of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other forms of dementia. While living with uncertainty of where this complex condition was leading, Kathleen sought out answers from numerous doctors. She refused to give up and was finally helped by a neurologist and a neurosurgeon at the Gardner Neurological Institute at the University of Cincinnati Hospital. This author feels like "it is her mission" now to educate others who may be struggling to find their own answers. Kathy lives in Cincinnati, Ohio and is a widow, mother of three adult children, and "Mimi" to seven Grandchildren.
