A Conversation with Dave Iverson on Being a Caregiver for 10 Years

In this episode, author, filmmaker and producer, and retired broadcast journalist, Dave Iverson shares: Why he chose to write the book Winter Stars about his journey as a caregiver rather than his own Parkinson’s diagnosis   The roller coaster ride of navigating the emotional states that come along with caregiving  The irrelevance of the truth and being right when dealing with caregiving   Caregiving for a person with dementia   What’s at the heart of being a caregiver  The value of caregivers in our society  Contending with grief throughout the process of caregiving   Taking care of yourself as a caregiver  The caregiving experience and its impact on your own concern for your future   “Playing the scene you’re in”  and more!
