      Yes and shame on everyone who mocked her, made fun of her, laughed and insulted her, when she had bouts of memory loss on the show, when her speech was affected, when she collapsed on stage, when they exploited her in the TMZ interview. All the while, this was happening to her unbeknownst to anyone. Frontotemperal dementia and aphasia. That should be a lesson to everyone to not judge what you do not know.

      _From the Local 10 News website:_
      Alex Finnie joined the Local 10 News team in May 2018.
      South Florida is home! She was raised in Miami and attended the Cushman School and New World School of the Arts for high school. Alex received her Bachelor of Science in television and film production at St. John's University in New York City.
      Alex has had the opportunity to cover a wide variety of stories so far at Local 10. In addition to the day to day news in the fast pace South Florida market, she has also traveled to cover big stories outside of the viewing area.
      In October 2018, Alex covered Hurricane Michael in the Florida Panhandle. She was there reporting before, during and after the storm. Local 10 was the first South Florida station to send a crew to cover the catastrophic Category 5 storm that ravaged large portions of the Florida Panhandle. In addition to that, Alex also traveled to Pittsburgh to cover the horrific mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in October 2018. Local 10 was the only South Florida station that traveled to Pittsburgh.
      Alex has worked in newsrooms around the country, from New York City to Alabama. Throughout her career, Alex has had the opportunity to interview a wide variety of notable people, including President Barack Obama, President Donald Trump, the Rev. Al Sharpton and Oprah Winfrey, to name a few. She covered the widely publicized Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley scandal that led to his resignation, as well as the heated Alabama Senate race between Roy Moore and Sen. Doug Jones. She also had the honor of covering the 50-year anniversary of "Bloody Sunday" in Selma, Alabama, the event that led to the Voting Rights Act.
      During her off time, Alex enjoys spending time with family, volunteering in her community and relaxing when she can. She loves being back in South Florida telling the stories that affect the community she's called home since childhood.

    We need to overhaul the guardianship system, i’ve been through something similar recently myself and a vulnerable relative was taken away whilst the “guardian” financially abused them and stole all their money and assets, despite us being family we were frozen and blocked from all communication and knowledge on the matter, as a family we went crazy trying to contact lawyers, organisations, police, case workers, anyone who would listen and we were told there was nothing we could do. We eventually got control but our relative had been left in debt and all their valuable assets gone, they not only stripped them of their wealth but also their dignity and even though we were family we had no other option but to sit back and watch it happen.

      Maybe you didn't hear but she has dementia (the same kind as Bruce Willis), apraxia, graves disease and lymphedema. All of these things explain her behavior. Alcohol isn't the cause of any of these. The alcohol abuse was probably her self- medicating her way through illnesses and conditions she had no idea that she had. Now they finally know. Your comment is irrelevant to the situation and extremely judgmental. If more people could understand WHY individuals take the substances they take, the world would be a better place. If you have an undiagnosed mental illness, you might take drugs to feel better. It makes sense because once you are diagnosed, you will be on legal drugs. How do you know people in her exact predicament when you don't actually know now or understand what it is? Comments like yours are so frustrating.
