In this episode, I introduce my personal experience as a caregiver for my mother, who is living with dementia. My mother will make several guest appearances on podcast episodes in both stories and in spirit. She is my reason “why” for everything I do and has inspired and supported me through every step of life. When I started my journey as a caregiver, I wrote an influential essay entitled “The Way Dementia Moves In” and am proud to share it with all of you.
The analogy of dementia moving into a household is powerful. Dementia progresses slowly, adding clutter in small increments until it is suddenly everywhere. I am here to help you navigate difficult conversations about health and caregiving with family members and close friends. You're welcome to share your personal stories with me. There is power in sharing experiences, and I welcome you into my journey.
