Episode Six: Humour in Dark Places

In this episode, host Wayne MacPhail interviews Susan Ormiston.

Susan is a veteran Canadian broadcaster who's done outstanding work for both CTV and CBC. She's also been an energetic spokeswoman for Alzheimer's disease in Canada. Susan watched as her mother was wrapped in the insidious fog of the disorder in the late '90s.

Her grandmother, too, was its slow victim. But Ormiston refused to be afraid of the future. In fact, she thinks finding humour even in the dark places Alzheimer leads us, can help us cope. To learn more about Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, visit http://www.alzheimerontario.org
