Gallimaufry defined: hodgepodge, jumble, confused medley

All kinds of important people, events and topics pop up in one’s life, don’t they?  So that’s what we’ll link to here – a gallimaufry of topics that relate to Trisha’s interests and work in patient empowerment and patient advocacy.

•  Alzheimers

My mother passed away in 2009, 10+ years after her Alzheimer’s Disease was diagnosed.  Over the years a number of Alzheimer’s issues that are empowerment issues too have popped up. Learn more here.

•  SPTCL

The genesis for my work was my misdiagnosis of SPTCL – Subcutaneous Panniculitis-Like T-Cell Lymphoma in 2004.  I didn’t really have it, but that diagnosis will be seared in my brain for eternity.
