EP 10 Lewy Body Dementia - Supporting With Love :: Norma Loeb

Bobbi and Mike discuss with today's guest, Norma Loeb the treatment and care for Lewy Body Dementia. Norma’s knowledge and experience with Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) began with the personal care of her mother, Lillian, who had LBD for many years.

Lil inspired Norma to create the Lewy Body Dementia Resource Center (LBDRC). She formed the center to raise awareness of LBD and to help caregivers locate doctors, nurses’ assistants, and hospice agencies – as well as the smaller problems of knowing which local surgical supply store can help or where the nearest veterans’ organization is located.

 Norma worked as executive assistant to the CFO at The New York Times Company for over 20 years.  While there, she served as chairperson of the work/life committee of The Times’ women’s affinity group and initiated and ran their eldercare support group.  Her expertise working with the top executives at The Times, as well as her managerial experience as executive director and a co-founder of the nonprofit organization, What BETTER Looks Like, has prepared her to direct this large project which is very dear to her heart.
