I was born in Manhattan, NY, but most of my life was spent in New Jersey and I traveled the country extensively...and did some overseas travel. It is the little things in life that matter. It was very early on in life I started studying human behavior. I guess it was a form of security for me-knowing what every footstep meant, every tone of the voice, and each facial expression or hand gesture. Funny thing, with words I always had problems expressing them, yet give me crayons, and I would draw you a picture, give me a guitar I would play you my music. Basically give me anything and I will create something. There is always some way of expressing myself with this over blown imagination of mine. There was one moment in my life, however, when I thought I would lose my imagination forever: when I learned that I had Alzheimer’s disease. Despite the diagnosis, I am LUCKY. I was tested several times... PET scan verified plaque and brain shrinkage! I started taking some natural supplements and with them and the exercising, I have had notable improvement. Math, logic, short-term memory ...all improved and still improving! I have established a group to help others with Alzheimer’s, dementia and memory loss issues. http: //www.endalzmemoryloss.org/ https: //www.facebook.com/RobertLRuisi Other General Adult Books The Panhandler Diaries, Hitchhiker, The Unknown Stories (anthology), The Three Letters Anthology, Dancing into the Fog, Sunlight, Turning Poi
