266: Stan Goldberg – Preventing Senior Moments

We've all felt like we've had "senior moments!" Yet most are
actually preventable. Helping guide as aging gay men to embrace our
age and our real senior moments id Stan Goldberg - ally to the
LGBTQ community who guides us on how to Prevent our Senior Moments
as he shares his book by the same name - Preventing Senior Moments:
How To Stay Alert Into Your 90's and Beyond. About Stan Stan
Goldberg is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Language and
Hearing Disorders at San Francisco State University and the author
of 225 articles and nine internationally award-winning non-fiction
books. Three were translated from English into Chinese, Indonesian,
and Portuguese. In October of 2023 Roman and Littlefield will
publish his latest book, PREVENTING SENIOR MOMENTS: How to Stay
Sharp into Your 90s and Beyond. Stan’s research has shown that
senior moments are not an inevitable part of aging. Rather, they
result from problems with information processing. While most senior
moments can be prevented, a few may signal the development of
Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. His writing received 22
national and international awards. His memoir as a bedside hospice
volunteer at the celebrated Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco,
LESSONS FOR THE LIVING, was cited in Arianna Huffington's THRIVE as
one of seven books anyone desiring personal growth should read. His
website, www.stangoldbergwriter.com contains hundreds of free
articles on aging, cancer, caregiving, and chronic illnesses. When
not writing, he spends time wood and stone sculpting, playing
wooden flutes he crafted, fly fishing, and acting silly with his
granddaughters. He has been living with cancer for more than 20
years and devotes time to cancer and Parkinson’s support groups.
