I am, constitutionally, an actress and I think to be an actor is not only a different kind of discipline, but it's completely introspective. So the solitude which is absolutely mandatory to write well is, I think, is hard for me. It's training muscles I haven't used very much. I love to write. I can write. But I've done nothing like this before and it will be a challenge. View quote

I think I'm more committed now. Some things are just serendipitous. My mother had the disease and I got involved with the organization, and then I met this splinter group out of the University of Minnesota Hospital, Dr. Karen Ashe and the team at the Grossman Center (for Memory Research and Care). I became sort of their spokesperson and then I got published. I published a first essay and a second essay and I'm up to my sixth essay. I speak all over the country and sometimes all over the world. It's grown and blossomed into something that feels right. I've had a really good life and a wonderful career. I've been comfortable and I've been healthy. And I adored my mother. So this is my way to give back. View quote
