When Anthony's life partner, Catherine Popp, received the devastating diagnosis of Early-Onset Alzheimer's, Anthony faced the challenge with the same tenacity and grit that had propelled him through life's hurdles before. From overcoming a learning disability to becoming one of the few African American pilots and navigating the complexities of single parenthood while maintaining a demanding career, Anthony was no stranger to adversity. But nothing could prepare him for the journey ahead.Rather than succumbing to despair, Anthony and Catherine embarked on an extraordinary adventure, traveling the world as nomads for eight years. Running became their shared passion, a way to seize each moment and defy the disease's relentless advance. With unwavering optimism, they believed in the promise of a cure just around the corner.As the disease progressed and the cure remained elusive, their journey shifted. The fast pace of foreign races gave way to a slower rhythm, adapted to Catherine's changing abilities. Yet, Anthony remained steadfast in his commitment to make every day meaningful for both of them.In this deeply personal and profoundly moving account, Anthony chronicles the second five years of their journey. With honesty and vulnerability, he shares the highs and lows, the triumphs and setbacks, and the invaluable lessons learned along the way. "One Footstep at a Time" is not just a story of survival: it's a testament to the power of love, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit in the face of life's greatest challenges.
