NIA MOSTACERO <\/strong><\/p>\n

One afternoon, Nia found her TV re\u00admote in her refrigerator.<\/p>\n

Nia Mostacero<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A few years ago, that would have sent the 46-year-old retired Air Force officer down a rabbit hole of fear. Was her early-stage dementia<\/a> progressing? Her mind slipping away?<\/p>\n

Instead, Nia switched on her favor\u00adite show. \u201cI don\u2019t sweat the small stuff anymore,\u201d she says. \u201cWhen you have Alzheimer\u2019s, every day is a blessing. The future? That\u2019s in God\u2019s hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

Between volunteering at church, working out, reading her Bible and at\u00adtending the young adult early-onset support group<\/a> she founded, there\u2019s not much time for relaxing. \u201cYou can still feel fulfilled with a dementia diag\u00adnosis,\u201d Nia says. \u201cYour life isn\u2019t over.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her attitude wasn\u2019t always so sunny. Twenty years into her Air Force career, she found herself making errors in her work. She put them off as stress. Then came the day she couldn\u2019t remember how to start her car. The diagnosis<\/a>, in 2017, was devastating. Her doctor gave her five to eight years to live.<\/p>\n

Her military career over, Nia sank into a deep depression. Stopped go\u00ading to church. But ultimately she re\u00adalized she couldn\u2019t face this enemy alone. She went back to church<\/a>. Be\u00adgan talking to God all the time, rather than praying at set times. Through the Alzheimer\u2019s Association, Nia found a support group, then started her own for people who are 65 and younger.<\/p>\n

She finds strength in Ecclesiastes 4:9\u201310, with its ending message: \u201cPity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.\u201d Words Nia lives by.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like God is not allowing me to progress as quickly,\u201d she says, \u201cso I can help others.\u201d<\/p>\n

ROD STEPHENSON <\/strong><\/p>\n

Rod realized his dream of becoming a minister late in life. He loved minis\u00adtering to his parishioners, preparing sermons, immersing himself in Bible study<\/a>. But it\u2019s now, at 75 and facing early-stage dementia, that he feels closest to God.<\/p>\n

\u201cGod is in control. I know that more deeply than ever,\u201d he says. \u201cThis isn\u2019t my problem to solve, and yet I\u2019m able to talk to the One who has all the an\u00adswers. That gives me such comfort.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rod was diagnosed with mild cog\u00adnitive impairment in 2020. He had already left the ministry because of health problems. He and his wife, Deb, were caring for his mother, who was in the late stages of Alzheimer\u2019s<\/a>. No one had to tell them the toll the dis\u00adease would take. \u201cIt was hard to think about anything but how this will end for me,\u201d he says. \u201cDeb cried every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple called the Alzheimer\u2019s Association 24\/7 Helpline. \u201cThat was the best thing we could have done,\u201d Rod says. \u201cIt connected us with other people who are on this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

He and Deb began praying together, a practice that has strengthened their marriage. \u201cI\u2019ve learned how impor\u00adtant it is to be open with your spouse,\u201d he says. \u201cIt has created a deeper bond<\/a> between us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, there are times when Rod battles negative thoughts<\/a>. On those days, he turns to Scripture\u2014Romans 8:38\u201339: \u201cFor I am convinced that neither death nor life\u2026nor anything else in all creation will be able to sepa\u00adrate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m reminded that every day is a blessing,\u201d Rod says. \u201cAlzheimer\u2019s can\u2019t take that away from me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
