Richard Bozanich and Jay Smith both suffer from early-stage Alzheimer's disease. They met 15 months ago at a support group, and ever since, they've been meeting weekly to plan a conference in Los Angeles called "Living Our Lives, Planning Our Futures: Early Memory Loss Forum." During these 15 months, a unique friendship has developed between the two. We talk with Bozanich and Smith about their memory and their friendship.
