Brandon Burke

As an adolescent, Brandon saw the effects of Alzheimer’s disease, specifically the havoc it wreaks on the diagnosed and the interruption of life it causes for caregivers, through the diagnosis of his beloved grandmother; but he never dreamed how that would shape his adult life.

In 2015, Brandon was faced with the realities of Alzheimer’s disease front and center when his father, Gary, was diagnosed. He immediately understood that this diagnosis would change the trajectory of his life forever.

This November, Brandon will release his first book, Rediscovering Dad and Discovering Myself: A Journey Through the Impact of Alzheimer’s. “I believe that sharing our stories is our superpower. We realize just how connected we all are when we have the courage to open ourselves up to others. You never know how your story can impact the life of someone else until you share. It just might save them,” Brandon relates.

Join Brandon on his journey as he shares how the relationship with his father has evolved and shaped the man he has become. “This is a story of family, forgiveness, connection, hope, pride, and most of all unconditional love,” says Brandon. “I hope that it helps you on your journey.”
