Yesterday I stumbled across an excellent article about working and dementia, that confirms in certain instances it’s desirable and health for people with dementia diagnoses to continue work. This has been a point of contention in the NFL Concussion Settlement, so the American Academy of Neurology article inspired a tweet thread that is almost a mini-article in itself. Please click the tweet to expand and read the thread.

Just came across an excellent article by American Academy of Neurology (@AANMember) about continuing to work with Alzheimer’s/dementia. It also contradicts many of the assertions #NFL uses to discredit claims in the #concussion settlement.https://t.co/ICkbMVKguT— Sheilla Dingus (@SheillaDingus) December 30, 2018
