Read MoreWally Klatch, 71, was diagnosed with Early-Stage Dementia in October 2022. He received his undergraduate degree from Indiana University and his Master’s Degree in Management from Purdue University. He worked as a Management Consultant to large and mid-sized companies in the areas of Organization and Operations, and spent thirty years living in Israel. Since being diagnosed, his condition has been connected by several neurologists to different brain conditions, including Parkinson’s Disease and brain spikes, among others. While his thought functionality is declining, his emotional awareness has increased, and he maintains functionality even while his relationship to himself and to his world is shifting.
