The mainstream medical view still holds that there is no cure for dementia, and for many people, that remains tragically true. That’s exactly why Ginger’s story feels so urgent to share. It is not presented as a miracle or a guaranteed path. It is one woman’s extraordinary lived experience of reversing her symptoms and reclaiming her independence after being near death. Come join Ginger to hear her inspiring memoir.
Ginger Smith is a retired speech-language pathologist who worked alongside neurology professionals at Stanford University Medical Hospital and trained physicians at both Stanford and UCSF. Her book blends her personal experience with a researcher’s lens. What began as a quiet, personal reckoning evolved into years of inquiry into the hidden factors that may mimic or amplify dementia symptoms, including trauma, nervous system dysregulation, drug interactions, inflammation, and more.
