AnnotationFollowing Jenny Knauss's diagnosis of dementia, the authors show how their reaction to the diagnosis was advocacy, and explain how this gives positive meaning to their lives in the Alzheimer's establishment. They give examples of advocacy projects in the US, and indicate factors that have led them to initiate, inform and act as jury for activities that affect them. (RH).
