Have you ever wondered what life looks like after the caregiving journey ends? In this episode, we explore the profound journey of a widower who found new purpose and joy after his intense role as a dementia caregiver concluded.

Dennis Dulniak, a widower with a passion for dementia caregiving, discusses his foundation, Nana's Books (https://www.nanasbooks.org/), which provides educational resources to Title I schools. 

Inspired by his late wife Nancy, who had dementia, Dennis emphasizes the importance of creating positive memories despite the challenges. He advocates for support for caregivers and aims to change attitudes towards dementia through early education. 

Dennis invites listeners to support Nana's Books and join his men's support group to foster compassion and understanding around dementia and disabilities.

For those who are currently caregivers or those who see caregiving on the horizon, this episode is a call to reflect on the personal changes and growth that come from such profound experiences. It’s also a prompt to consider how to transform personal challenges into actions that benefit others, turning grief into a driving force for good.

The end of the caregiving journey could be the beginning of another beautiful chapter. Let this story inspire you to think about how you can extend your journey’s impact beyond caregiving, creating a lasting legacy that honors your loved one and supports your community.
