"Diana Friel McGowin is not only the first person with Alzheimer's to do a homepage, but she's also the first one to write a book about her experiences with this disease. Her book, Living in the Labyrinth is a best seller that has been published in eleven languages! Diana is an early onset Alzheimer's patient, diagnosed at the age of 45, and she has a chat group on AOL for people with early-onset Alzheimer's. Diana, or LILAUTHOR1, as she is known online, has recently updated her homepage, including a picture of herself and a wave-file that lets you hear her voice. You can write to Diana at: lilauthor1@aol.com. (Don't forget the 1 after lilauthor.) Thank you so much, Diana, for sharing yourself and your journey with us." by Brenda Parris Sibley at A
