Many people have concerns about losing their independence and quality of life if diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer’s. Because of these concerns, patients are taking agency over their lives and building an end-of-life plan that gives them options of what care they do or do not want prior to losing full cognitive capacity. Join the team from Worry-Free Wednesdays to learn about the end-of-life options dementia patients have to sustain their quality of life.

Wendy Norman is the founder of Worry-Free Wednesdays. She has been researching and engaging with end-of-life issues for over 15 years. Her interest was sparked by her mother’s diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer’s in 2006. This is when she learned the importance of having a plan before becoming ill, especially when cognitive decline is involved.  Wanting to help others understand the value of pre-planning, she became an end-of-life planning consultant in 2017. In 2019, she left a 25-year career in marketing and program management at Microsoft to invest her time and energy toward end-of-life planning, education, and awareness. In 2020 she helped create and lead a team of volunteers to launch an education and awareness program called End of Life Ready hosted by End of Life Washington. Building on that experience, Worry-Free Wednesdays was created to broaden and deepen end-of-life education.
