Writing about her feelings, challenges, symptoms, and experiences on her blog, she encourages people living with dementia and care partners to explore ways to live beyond dementia. Scherrer is a Dementia Action Alliance Board of Directors member and has been featured in the New York Times, AARP, PBC, and the South Africa Sunday Times.
