That three strikes."I have a lot of fear," Gabriela Luchsinger admits. "I'm afraid I'm going to develop dementia, and that body won't be me."If I can't speak to my sons, if I can't recognize my grandchildren, if I can't remember the foods I like, I don't want to carry on with my existence."Gabriela channeled that worry and last year co-founded the Hamilton chapter of Dying With Dignity.
